Can't justify replacing my DINAN intake. :\

How much would you want for the gruppe m?

[QC_ZHP]

Not sure, I got it pretty cheap so I'd return the favor. Not really interesting in selling atm, but the performance intake is definitely an awesome piece.

My mind may change when I put my headers on, but right now, I need the gruppe M roaring.

Man soo tempting

[derbo]

[Lanister]

Maintenance aside. Hmm Eurotune, drawp, AVIN deck (if they fix the issues), reverse cam, maybe TS3 exhaust, black interior or ///M interior, heated seats, hookers and blow...

[STREETFIGHTER50]

Wow how much do those go for new? Looks pricy! I got a cheap o Cosmos I'm about to install-bling bling! Lol :)

Congrats, Gary ! Glad you pulled the trigger.

[SoCalZman]

Good price!

[Lanister]

Congrats Gary! Looking forward to PICS! :drool

Hookers and blow are not mods but it's just my cry about wanting to be a rock star :) LOL

[kayger12]

Good price. Congrats.

[WOLFN8TR]

Thanks guys! I always wanted one of these bad boys and the price was right.

Giya just joking with ya, party on.

Not Mods but they both will make you go fast, which is the point of mods, so; not the means to an end but the end result itself. Good Catch, great price, only wish I have seen it first. Someone else's AFE will be in my possession soon anyway so hope you enjoy!

Gary,
That little imperfection on the top came from not removing the tab on the expansion tank - it pushes up from the bottom so the CAI can come in contact with the hood. Before you bolt the CAI down, notice that it rests on the little 1.5"x1.5" tab on the ET neck which has some lettering/instruction on it. To relieve the pressure at that point, bend and snap your ET tab off, it's not needed for anything.

Thanks for the info Bruce, I will remove that sucker. I remember reading about having to adjust something when installing these to avoid breaking the intake. Any other adjustments needed?

Congrats Gary :thumbsup

Congrats Gary :thumbsup

Thanks Charlie! I'm like a kid at Christmas time waiting for Santa to come. Santa is UPS! :headbang

[wsmeyer]

You don't need to break that part off. It looks like this:

Bottom:

And it just slides off to the right. If you didn't take it off the hood wouldn't close.

Mines cracked as well. It's a horrible design and the underside of the hood rests on that snorkel. Most of them flex and squish down but others, like mine, simply crack. I think it's possible that it was so old when I bought it "new" that the plastic had become brittle.

[BCS_ZHP]

Well crap, I snapped off something that could've been pulled off with some good tugging.

Gary, no other adjustments that I recall. To make installation easier, separate the upper & lower portions of the CAI, this makes it easier to install the little snorkel behind the headlight to the box. Plus it prevents you from accidentally scratching your CF top of the CAI during install. After everything is installed and looks right, then the last step is to lay the cover on the CAI and snap the clips, you'll get a chubby at that point, it's normal.

[WOLFN8TR]

Good to know. Thanks for the info fellas! Pics when installed.
