ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

      An interfooler?


      No need. If you want more cold air, get a cold air intake.

        Firstly - Please make the effort to type correctly.

        Yes it will work, No it won't add power.
        Get a turbo, or make a proper cold air intake.

          it will look cool, but you will choke your engine even more....also it will have less response/acceleration.

                  Its a CAI - just instead of the usual round filter, it has a flat panel.
                  Really its better than where most people mount their CAI, except for the fact that the air filter would be very open to damage from rocks /dirt / bugs.

                        I don't think it is worth the time and effort to do that. I'd just stick with a CAI

                          People wiill see an intercooler and think you're fast... You'd be embarrassed by mustangs left and right.
