Is there anyone that has installed a cold air intake? Have you seen any gains? I have installed a custom air intake with custom made air box for heat shield and a simota cone filter but i think that the car is slower. Might be me! I can't tell for sure. Now i have the oem filter system back and i hope to feel the difference. I intend to do some test and measure the time. I have the 1.0 fr 115hp.

Most videos on youtube will show you that installing a cold air intake not gaining any additional horse power and its all a myth. Except giving you a sporty sound.

With oem filter system back i i can't tell any difference. Only that the intake temperature is slightly better with my cold air intake. For instance with 30 degrees Celsius ambient i have 55 iat while with cai i have 50 to 52 degrees Celsius on the same driving conditions. I have take some timings with oem for instance 80-110 kph with 3rd gear and i want to put the cai back to see the difference. When i am ready i will post some numbers and photos.

Hi I just installed an intake too. May I ask how you monitor intake temperature? Also where exactly is the cold air venting from? I had a peek in there and I can't see the duct/channel. I'm wondering what I can do to get more air going to it because it does get quite warm to the touch.
