Review CPT Cold Air Intake

I bought mine through the Walmart online store, I ran into the same issues as already mentioned. I left the washer fluid reservoir off because I ran out of time (had to make a quick trip to CA), but I plan on fixing it soon enough. Also had to bend the horn bracket out the way too. I used to have some cheap eBay no brand SRI and the car ran worse, so went back to the stock box. So far performance wise I'm happy with this CAI, combined with the Manzo Y-Pipe and and exhaust system I'm super happy. Next is the Berk resonated test pipes which are being shipped to me soon.

Fitment of mine sucked terribly. The brackets were way off. I ended up cutting out the MAF housing and welding a 3" one in place. Was much better alignment wise after that since we were able to tweak it. The welds inside the original MAF housings were terrible so very glad I modified them. They actually gave me a 20% discount when I complained which was nice.

How did you fit the windshield washer fluid tank. I’m specifically referring to the tube that you put fluid in. The tank that I got was way off and couldn’t fit the tube. Also had to cut a hole on the bottom of the tank for the sensor to go into.

Old topic but oh well.. CPT intakes
don't worry radiator shroud coming back soon.
I want to start with thanks to the guys above and their mostly positive reviews I decided to get a pair of these..the install (yesterday) was pretty simple except I needed my own valve cover houses as the ones supplied were trash any way I messed up massively and bought too large of air filters for the allowed space so I ended up running the steel mesh filters 😭😭 just doing a test fit with them till the new similar size k&n filters arrive..so far the idle is stable going to let it run stock for a bit till I tune .. trying to locate a 2010 ECU btw. So far haven't got on it yet as the instructions say wait a week after doing normal driving to allow the ECU to adjust the map...will be giving another review soon after the break in period lol. I'm also running blox racing hydro shields to assist in filtration 🤣🤣

Keep us updated on MPG. I know it's difficult to once an upgrade like this is performed however it's possible and it's for the sake of documentation.

Im down in fort Lauderdale.. right off I95 and sunrise..so far not bad actually ..I did mess up by not taking an intake temperature reading with the silicone hoses and compare to the cold air 🥴

that's a cool idea ..I just did my plugs and all I did was take them off the throttle bodies ...cleaned them as well... also cleaned the maf sensors when I put the good filters on...I may go with the CPT hydro shields instead.... the blox seem too thin doesn't seem to be able to do it's job 🤦
