Default k&n Complete Cold Air...

So yea i called k&n today and i asked a few questions
how much is the k&n CAI for the scion tC?
360
Does it come in a Complete Cold Air?
yes it does
Does it convert to Short Ram?
yes both cold air and Complete Cold Air convert (i think he answered wrong because when i cheked on the site it said only the CCA(complete cold air) work...


so 360 MSRP.... and about 250 ish for other dealers...
but the thing is, has anyone gotten the complete cold air (CCA) that converts
to a short ram?.... there was a post earlier... but it never showed any pictures...
anyone help alittle out...
its either the weapon R short ram forever... or the k&n CCA that converts to eitheer...

anyhelp..

I'll have mine next week, so when it comes I will try to make it a short ram first....then cold air.

I know what you mean about the CCA system. It's on their web, yet everyone says the CI will do it. Yet, no one will try it and post it....So, if no one has by next week, I will see if it works.

I want to know who why everyone thinks it can be configured short ram... ?


Just because you happen to be able to get the filter on the end of the single pipe?

It's obviously not designed to be set up that way, it says nothing about it on K&N's website.

It also says that it is "For off road use only". ???? the K&N doesnt appear to be street legal. (yet). Anybody know if they are getting CARB tested ??

i have the K&N CAI and you can convert it to a short ram intake if you want. you just take off the lower section of the pipe, it's very easy..

personally, I would never do this, if you want a short ram intake get the weapon R.

You seem to be confused, let me help you.

All of these intakes are in fact, street legal. They are 49 state legal. If you live in beautiful california (which you do not) then the dreaded CARB applies to you (California Air Resources Board). They are in the process of getting tested and awaiting approval. The only impact CARB will have on the other 49 states is the wait you will go through to get the item.

Hope this helps.

The filter sits in the wheelwell on the drivers side.

This is from their web site - "Typhoon intakes come in one of three designs; cold air intakes (CA), short ram intakes (SR), or complete cold air (CCA) intakes which can be configured as either a cold air intake or a short ram intake. "

right... doesnt that mean that they come in ONE of three possible designs?? http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...Prod=69-8607TB

that page says "Cold air". not "Complete cold air". I took that to mean it could not be dual configured.

The Scion tC's default maintenance interval is every 5000 miles. I've seen threads where you can set the light to go on otherwise, but since I am driving 95% of my miles on the freeways, 5k is fine.
