Is anyone familiar with the cold air intake system from OS Intakes? I've exchanged a few emails with the guy, but he seems very cautious about revealing a lot of information about his system, I guess for fear that I will steal his idea. I like the fact that it picks up air from below the car, and includes a hydro-lock device to prevent water from entering the system. Let me know if you have any real experience with this vendor -- not really looking for comments on why I shouldn't consider it.

QUOTE I would avoid buying from this person. Thank you, sfrenck! You're the only one who actually read my request for information on the vendor, not the efficacy of the cold air intake. I've always questioned the location and size of the stock air intake on the 2.0L, especially given the aerodynamics of getting air into the engine bay at speed. My plan is to do my own evaluation of a solution, so I was curious as to whether or not this vendor was someone I wanted to include in that evaluation. You've answered that question. Thanks again. |

The use of "I think x amount of HP increase" should be enough for a grown adult to want to avoid this product. Any company that belives in their products dyno or show real data. |
