agreed... i was looking to get the CF one due to the way that the airbox works, however if this one costs less, then I would probably be interested in this one!

carbon fiber one im refering to:

the only problem with the Umnitza CF intake is that it actually loses you a few ponies

That is WAY too much IMO. Who welded the intake? Leo?

No he did not. Weapon-R/ MMW Welded the pipe.

right, and Leo works for MMW and is the one that welded all the MMW header/s-pipes. He does most of the welding for MMW. Do you even know who did it? Are you sponsored by them or work for them?

Someone want to explain to me why a cold air version of this, specifically the CAIs out right now, do not work with the supercharger, yet this does?

because after passing the turbine its hotter! cold air on force induction is a tough debate.

you can use any cai in the market you will have to cut before the maf mount and weld brackets to it. will it work? yes but it might hurt your car in terms of air fuel ratio or your MAF not able to read the new air flow.

Can we see more detailed pictures, like of the Intake off the car. Different views to give us a better idea of what we're looking at?

Ok, so this device shown on page one, is somewhat like a sri, but it doesn't mess with the AFR's to an unsafe level? Just clarifying, thanks!

what WR is doing is replacing the oe top/trd bottom air box with a higher flow filter. the supplied trd air box comes with 2 filters.

as far as afr , you need a wideband to monitor it.

i noticed that...the larger lower one, and the small one above that says 'do not remove'. any harm in removing either?

Still, for F/I to have an AFR of 14.7 until almost 4,000RPM is somewhat... bad? Would that be the word?

the intake is listed on CC's site for $225 and on monster's site for $200 this month(except when u click on it, it then says $225), so don't go by the msrp.
