The finished product: Homebrew CAI. During a run to the local Walgreens to get these pictures developed, I performed a preliminary test of the CAI. The tone is for the most part normal under normal driving conditions (i.e. mild throttle). A deeper tone is achieved under moderate throttle. I haven't had a chance to go FOT with it yet, so I don't know whether there is significant power gain. Low end torque feels a slight bit higher, but it could be my imagination. I'm going to monitor the condition of the CAI for a few months to make sure everything holds up. Hopefully, the caulking can withstand the vibration. If not, I may need hints on cleaning the throttle body... I will continue my observations as they become available. Final cost: ~$80-90.
