Cold Air Intake & Tuner

I would like to start this post off with the tuner; The SCT ISTX wireless tuner allows you to do anything imaginable with a tuner, and is built for your year and comes with custom tuning. i will list below the specs of this amazing tuner.

 To install the Cold air intake i will first have to remove the front bumper and grill, along with the core support old air intake setup along with a cross bar. Now for the dificult part, install, you will first bend all piping acording to cold air intake plans, and where you would like to place it. some people prefer to leave it turned of at a 45 degree angle. Personaly  i would like to get the best for my money, and this is why i will have to tear apart my front bumper, grill, core supportt, and cross bar. To bend it to get an 80 degree down will be alot of work and custom fabrication. Most of it will be mounting and bending everything else comes as a kit. With having it bent down on a 80 degree i can reach a cooler air to gas flow ratio which can save me gas and also horsepower. Along with the cold air intake i will  also install the tuner which simply suction cups or sticks to your dashboard, then you plug the cord into your cars port. The tuner should turn on and have a welcome screen; it will give you step by step directions for instalation.

Now onto the cold air intake, this a crucial part in have a moded engine, none the less a engine that will be pushed for its power. Keeping cool helps engines last, this keeps the cyclinder walls and cylinders from expanding to much or if they do expand it shrinks them back to appropriate size. It does more then just that it cools the complete engine and brings cool air into the fuel lines also.This is the cold air intake i will be instaling, specs will be following the picture.
