Smile My AFE Stage 2 CAI Is On!!!

Just finished installing my AFE Stage 2 on my CSRT-8. It took about 2 hours with a very small amount of light(couldn't get it earlier). Install was pretty straight forward.Instructions were written well and kit was laid out nicely. Just had to retain my original hose instead of the supplied one. Only bumpy spots were taking the air sensor out of the stock tubing and inserting it into the AFE tube(had to have a friend hold the rubber piece while i pushed the sensor in). Pulled this thing out the box was was like Dayum!!!.....it's freakin huge! Looks like they took every possible square millimeter and filled the space with this intake!!! Looks Sweet! All finished now and Holy F*ck!!! I threw 3, count it 3 passengers in with me each weighing 200lbs and my tool kit in the trunk and this thing still took off!!! It's never felt this strong with that much weight in it! As far as sound.....OMG it screams sooooooo loud and sounds sooooo good! My passengers couldn't stop laughing after hearing how loud the intake was and how hard the car pulls!!! Before the car sounded great but this thing totally amplifies and adds the throatiness to tone!!! Sounds like i have an exhaust coming from the front!!! I know this is going to turn a helluva lotta heads by rubberneckers and pigs!!! lol

Anyways i will post pics on Sat after i get home from work seeing as this is day 2 of 3 and i'll answer any questions about it. I highly highly recommend this intake!!!

Got mine from sounthernhotrod.com for less than $300. Bye Bye -Paul

Damn you! Stop taunting me. Mine is arriving on Sunday, I can't wait. I feel like a little kid at Christmas time. Thanks for the review and the helpful hints about the sensor. If I have time, I'll try and take some step by step pics of the install (not that its that hard though).

Congrats on the mod, Paul! I know how excited you were about it and getting your hands on one even in the first stages of tests...
It's worth the wait, AH, you're going to love this thing!
