Hey sacha
its Steven Jenny's brother,

You should be able to do it your self I have seen a diy on here and it didnt look very hard, If not maybe one of the members here can help you out with it. I'll ask one of my friends for a shop he got work done at and I'll post the number for you later.

Not sure why she is asking to go to stock - I went to something that sucks up higher with all the rain that we get

I am taking it off due to to some concerns I have had with its effects on the wearing down of my clutch. I had to replace my first clutch at 16K and now at 24...I am having problems again (I am going to jump off a bridge if I have to drop another $1k on a clutch). Thanks a lot for the replies.

You're removing a cold air intake due to a perceived higher rate of wear on the clutch?!

Is that something like changing my shoes because your tires are wearing too fast?

What does the CAI have to do with the clutch?

And no offense but if you're wearing your clutch so quickly, maybe it has to do with driver skill more then your CAI. Or it could be a transmission issue?
