Cold Air Intake

I have the Injen CAI on my 2010 SC. I never had it dynoed and I think it might have hurt the initial torque on take off as it use to accidentally slip the front tires on take off. It also seems to pull better during passing. It seemed like it was struggling to get air when passing. I'm sure a lot of it just comes from the great induction sound. It may not have actually added power but I do believe it shifted where power occurs in the rev range.

I put this on at 63k and now have 164k and I'm on my third filter element. I have had zero engine or intake issues. It makes absolutely no extra noise until you get on the throttle hard. Then it sounds mean!
