The Comptech CAI is a tad louder than stock. I honestly don't feel any difference in power. To tell you the truth, I don't see how anyone's butt dyno could detect a difference in ~5 hp. I did notive that the car doesn't seem to bog down as easily when moving from a dead stop.

Did either of you guys have any problems fitting the air box. Mine hits the hood and vibrates like a MF'r. I've had three different boxes sent to me from Comptech. I even modified the box further to make if sit lower. Does anyone have any tips for me?

Oh...and also, maybe I'm just retarded. How the hell do you post a picture. I've been a member of either s2ki or clubsi for the past 3 years, and I have no idea how to post a pic. I did like 50 searches to no avail.

Thanks for the answer!

If you can also answer the following question, it would help me to choose an intake system for my S.

Can air also get into the airbox from around the side of the radiator, and is the box sealed to prevent hot air from the engine compartment from leaking in?

The box is not completely sealed from the engine compartment but for the most part, the air comes in from the fender well.
