Ultimate racing Cai discussion.

Wow!
That does look like a really good design.
I just wish that somebody were to come up with some sort of asthetic cover to go in the place of where the stock air box went.
Having that big open space there kind of bugs me.
That's just my opinion.

Before anyone buys a cai i would wait and see what Dinan comes out with.They have a cai ready to be released soon.I,m sure its going to be a good looking functional piece.I was told by Eric from Dinan its going to be under 1k.But with prices the way they are from Dinan that could mean 999.99

Its very similar to the MSDS stage 2 in many ways, except you cant go to short ram if you wanted to... Looks good though. Def one of the better looking intakes out there... Good price too!

ironic · 02-01-2008, 03:34 PM

looks like a really great product to me.

judec · 02-01-2008, 03:35 PM

more intakes to come. anyway - this is the nicest one and I really like those curves. looks not only nice, but functional, too.

Mr. 5 · 02-01-2008, 03:36 PM

Powder coated black would be better IMO.

rideelement247 · 02-01-2008, 03:37 PM

Wow, I am sold. I just wish there were some dynos for it

I cashed in my tire warranty a while ago...hopefully I will get the check soon so I can buy it. Of course, I will get it PC'd black. I am sure they have the option.

We are looking into powder coating (specifically wrinkle black) options. Hang tight!

With products like UR's on the market, I think the only people that would be interested in a Dinan intake would be those going for "the badge"

If you guys can't do it, that is completely fine with me. I can always find a shop around here to do it. Also, would not like to wait any longer than I have to

jpsimon · 02-01-2008, 04:01 PM

That really is the only reason

Nice to see UR come out with an intake. I like the design of this one the best of what I have seen so far. the bends actually look smooth.

I'm assuming that this won't work with a bov though?

We designed it to work with both of the BOV kits we offer, and to work with most already on the market!

intake looks good, curious as i have never seen any info on a UR cai.. just got on the UR HFC DPs and the quality/fitment was great. definitley interested to hear more about this cai.

I have to take a look at some of your BOV pics to see if how close it is. Do you have any idea if this would clear an AA BOV?
