CAI question
ok well i finally have money to spend on my CAI but i was wondering...i live in Ohio so it gets cold and i was wondering if having a CAI in winter would like kill my motor or something with all the cold air? my friend used to have a VW Fox that had a CAI on it and when it was cold the car would randomly shut off during winter... so just wondering if i should just wait till like spring to put one on

I really like having that little intake. And when ever I lift my hood and my friends are around, they always ask... What is that little intake for? LOL

RE: CAI question
most cold air intakes for neons come with the nipple for the pcv valve hose...but some dont so the little filter is the best way to go...
i did it to mine also.....it looks a little neater on a dohc though.....
the bypass valve isnt gonna do you much good at all....if you put it on then its kinda defeating the purpose of a CAI, cepending on where you put it.....
snow wont bother it much either, just as much as rain would anyways.....if i can drive my car in heavy rain and not have a problem then you should be able to drive it in snow....
