    Steeda Cold Air

    Thank you for posting the email. Dr. Meyer sent all the invitations for the shootout. I'm unaware of any better source for the truth. Guss your post is slanderous defamation of character. Is that the way you wish to leave it?

    No problem, but how do you post it to the forum from my business inbox? I can also forward it to someone who can post it?

    Steeda Cold Air

    I contacted Dr. Jamie Meyer, who did the shootout and YES Steeda was invited but they did not respond. This as related to me today from Dr. Meyer via email.

    Steeda Cold Air

    It's a good thing I said "hypothetical". My system is the Tunable Induction system in the shootout. It was the owners pick of systems to keep after all the systems were tested. This was the prototype system and the production system will post +2hp more with a custom dual - cone and full...

    Steeda Cold Air

    Tom, you'll see the disclaimer on manufacturers sites denoting: "Not approved for use on emissions controlled vehicles". Meaning NOT CARB approved.

    Steeda Cold Air

    PS..... I don't know who all the manufacturers were that were invited to the shootout. Let's say though, HYPOTHETICALLY, that I was a manufacturer that had released a system prior to the shootout and had many thousands of dollars tied up with marketing and manufacturing would I risk the...

    Steeda Cold Air

    Doug @ BAMA CHIPS will be doing some dyno testing on my GT system in the next couple weeks and I'll post the results. A metal shield IS NOT a heat shield. It's simply a fan wash shield. A polycarbonate shield is both a heat and fan wash shield. Plus if the shield DOESN'T seat into the hood...

    What makes a Cold Air Kit...a Cold Air Kit?

    The 05/06 systems are my first underhood systems with the designing of the 05/06 precluding having the filter in the inner fender. I wanted to provide the coolest area possible with the intake underhood and thusly the full surround polycarbonate shield. The shield will block heat to 270...

    Opinions on Demolet CAI needed!!

    The new paint options are new choices over the carbon fiber. As far as 'Ricer', I've yet to see a foreign car system in real carbon fiber. Most are chrome. The FR500 carbon fiber intake gave me the idea. Bear in mind there's a big difference in 'carbon fiber look' and the real McCoy. And...

    Opinions on Demolet CAI needed!!

    Current 05/06 GT system stats: -Systems returned: NONE -Tune issues : 1 GT, 91 tune, corrected. -System production quality control: 1 shield mounting tab, broken in shipping transit, all shields then updated with black anodized mounting bracket. No further problems related in...

    Opinions on Demolet CAI needed!!

    Sorry to take so long to reply, I just now saw the thread. Is was simply a matter of 'lesser evils' designing the system within the fitment constraints of the radiator hose and hood blanket. If I'd gone with a larger diameter filter it would have dropped the TB pipe down onto the radiator...

    coldair intakes?

    My 'Tunable Induction' system is ALL plastic to maintain a uniform system temperature once the engine compartment heats up, which will be a significant factor with the upcoming summer heat. I also incorporate a FULL SURROUND polycarbonate heat shield. My shield seats against the hood...

    Does anyone have any input on this CAI

    Thanks Ski. Sorry for the confusion with the trade name. Technically they are still tunable, as are the other brand 05/06 systems, requiring different tunes for the different octane fuels and processor codes.

    The 89-04 systems are all tunable. Anytime you change the diameter or length of a MAF system it changes the HP & torque. The 89-04 systems allowed 3 tuning positions (2 std., 3 with optional meter adapter) This way you can test/dial-in the system for the best performance setup for your...

    Does anyone have any input on this CAI

    The Prototype system utilized a closed end filter. I had a higher flowing Dual Cone molded for the production system. The Murillo testing was with the dual-cone. Plus the polycarbonate shield is a 'full-surround' shield. If you square off the whole corner with a plastic that will...

    Does anyone have any input on this CAI

    Changing meters would change the tune fitment, etc.. I'm a firm believer in the axiom " If it ain't broke don't fix it". You'd like it as it is and it's available through parts shopper which helps support this forum.

    Does anyone have any input on this CAI

    The inside TB pipe diameter is 4". The outside diameter is 4 5/8". The 95 meter is the biggest possible with the 4" i.d. TB pipe. The aspect about the meters which will make this make more sense to you is that ALL the 05/06 systems use the factory sensor. Meaning that the housing...

    Does anyone have any input on this CAI

    Mine is injected molded ABS. The ABS is tough and the thickness @ the meter center is 1/4", then recessed for allowing the TB pipe/filter fitment. The back half of the meter that's in the TB pipe is a full 2" in length. This means half the meter is shielded/reinforced with the TB pipe but...

    Does anyone have any input on this CAI

    It's no problem addressing questions: Ski; there was no mention of any gouging, only obvserved flexabilities in profit margins. I don't say 'gouging' because other factors come into play. One huge one is monthly advertising expense. If a given company spends $5000. a...
