AmbisoniK 0 Posted March 8, 2005 been looking @ a few air filter/induction kits & am wondering which one to go for. general consensus seems to be the BMC CDA but i've heard negative things about induction kits due to the fact that if you submerge the intake &/or take in water then it can seriously damage your engine :( also i've spoken to a couple of racing drivers/mechanics & they favour the old school cone filter setup with a quality heat shield over the induction kits....i'm confused :| models i've been looking @ are : - BMC CDA Carbonio Cold Air Intake Ram Air Pro Ram Raid HP Carbon fibre induction kit (like the CDA but with the filter mounted @ the front - Raid HP = Ram Air,same company) Turn 2 Cold Air induction system Neuspeed P-Flo Air Intake Kit with Composite heat shield K&N 57i anyone got any ideas :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 8, 2005 Kevhaywire is selling a CDA... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 8, 2005 Indeed I am. The BMC is a cone filter inside a special box, so it's quieter than a K&N 57i. Submerging the intake is a Subaru thing....too many people watch the RAC rally and think it will happen to their cars, but it won't happen on a Corrado unless you drive through water above headlight level....in which case the car interior would be flooded if you did, so.....

Joe M 0 Posted March 8, 2005 Did you ever have the cda fitted Kev? How was it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 8, 2005 Aye...fitted it and used it for a few hours as a test. I was curious to see what they're like as Stealth really rate them and you definitely get a noticable gain, especially in the midrange and top end. Sounds amazing on part throttle up to 4000 rpm and not loud at all. It does get a bit loud at WOT which is why I didn't stick with it because my car is a daily driver, but it's nothing like as loud as a K&N or CAI.
