If you're just looking to buy a cone filter from like auto zone, easiest thing to do is messure the diameter of the tube and match it up witha filterat autozone or advanced auto parts. If you're not looking to buy a complete intake, it would probably be best to just clamp the air filter to the MAF sensor, it won't be a cai, but it will still help air flow, gas millage and performance. Infact, advanced auto parts has a filter that has several different size rubber rings on the air filter so you can put it on a 2 1/2" up to 3". Hope this helps.

i dont understand, how would that not be a cold air intake?Granted i'm assuming we're talking about placing the cone where fresh air is reachable. isit because theMAF ispaired with the cone? Do true cai kits have different sensors?

When it comes to performance, colder air is better. A CAI may give some slight problems in very cold climates when the engine is still warming up but not much.
Water and puddles are a much bigger problem to worry about with a CAI. If the filter gets submerged (and because most CAI's place the filter very low to the ground this can happen)the engine will suck in water like a straw and hydrolock the engine.

Hello Nova,
I not really looking for performance, but for fuel economies,
and a fast warming car in the morning when I bring the kid to the day care.
Could a SRI will be better that the OEM Air Intake?
and which one between a SRI and a CAI should be better for my propose.
Thank all.
