i got a question about cai, i hav a cai but it isnt for my car so i hav some fabricating to do, now the thing is i wanna get some more aluminum pipe and make it a bit longer than the cai for my car, it would end up right behind the grill, so air from out side would flow directly into it.

the thing is all i am doing to this car is cai and headers so i would be able to make the cai as long as possible, so i want to kno if there would be any draw backs with doing it longer than the K&N cold air intake for my car.

and also if u guy recommend me to buy the extra pipes and weld it together in the shape i want or to buy the silicone rubber and clamp it where the bends connect.


i would be grateful for any serious feedback

Shocked

Yes!! .. you are sucking in unfiltered dirty air directly into your engine Neutral Neutral

If you want to do this,there's something called an ice box that you can make (i should be making one soon,so i'll make a DIY guide). Essentially uses your stock airbox and a SRI to make a sort of a CAI, except the filter element is at the top and not at the bottom
