Default Just for kicks, I'm trying the carbonio intake.

I'd just like to test it if nothing else. I may try to directly compare a few CAI's, just to see which if any, can even come close to the stock set up. I mean, I just cannot believe that there is no viable solution to the intake situation. I have my doubt's, but hey, you never know, until you try.

I'll report back on it if anything interesting comes up.<ul><li><a href="http://carboniointakes.com/index.php">Carbonio</a></li></ul>

Default sweet

I've always wanted to try the BMC or an ITG setup and take some data. Do some before/after datalogging.

PS - Bike's on DML for sale now, eBay tonight. I'm confident it will go fast... then K04/body kit time (and not the Pzwo). We need to take some highway vids.

Default For sure.

I went by and checked out my car this morning. I ditched the moldings and had the shop grind off the studs on the doors and weld up the holes in the front. Looks pretty sharp. Should be back in my hands by friday.

Hope the bike goes quick.

Default Here's a link to the B6 install. The only difference is the brackets that hold the box to the car.

Default I think its a great idea.

If more people were trying to create a worthwhile CAI, instead of rehashing the same antiquated design, we may actually make some progress here.
