Intercooler? Inactive ti?

I would recommend Fogging the airbox (http://mz3.net/articles/149.html) and getting a Bosal or Stromung exhaust.

Have you tried Foggin the airbox and if so what did you think? The concept sound very tempting.

I did it, same "gains" you can expect from a CAI for significantly less money and it keeps the stock air filter. Made sense to me. I did notice that it pulled a little harder in the higher revs.

Nice, I think I will definitely try this one weekend. When you did the modifications to your air box where you running a stock ECU or did you have a chip?

I think you may have misinterpreted my "gains" remark. You may or may not notice any difference at all. I doubt anymore hp is being made, it was just nice that the engine didn't fall on it's face in the upper revs.

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.

yeah. you can buy my cosmos racing intake. goes down to the underpanel to grab the colder denser air at the bottom. but again, not much gains... more for looks and sound. $50 shipped.

here's a link to one of my pictures with it on... http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showpho...15&ppuser=4475
