...and an Iceman 2 piece, so when the weather report is clear and we're not in rainy season, you can run cold air, and remove the extension (very easy) in the wet weather.
I have never heard of this, but it does sound like a very nice set up. I would look into this if i were you.

Well forgive me for not trusting your mind-powered dyno, but they have PROVEN that a cai adds more hp than a sri. Not only has it been proven, but it makes much more sense being that colder air is more dense. If the intake that mokey suggested does what he says it does and is reasonably priced i would definetely get that one.

i guess i should've said that it's not worth the extra $$$ for the amount of HP you gain gong to a CAI. i know the thing about cold air is more dense and contains more oxygen per unit of air; and more about volumetric efficiency then you'd prolly care to hear about. if that unit is actually made by Iceman, i'd go with that, though it would be a pain in the ass to remove it every single time it rains. i don't trust bypass valves, my friend hydrolocked his motor and he had one in his eclipse with the bypass. that was enough for me to stay away.

From what mokey said, it isn't very difficult or time consuming convert the unit to SR, i do agree with you on the fact that bypass valves are crap. I do also think that it's not necessarily worth the extra $$ for the CAI, hence my saying that if it was REASONABLY priced to get it. I personally have an SR and i don't have any complaints, but i think it all boils down to what you have to spend, and what you are trying to accomplish.

very true. like i said, if that is a resonable unit to use; i would not see why he shouldn't get it.
