I have a custom SRI with a K&N filter on my automatic and it took away some low end torque, but when I added my Megan Cat Back (Drift Spec) it feels like I got back the torque I lost and more. It sounds awesome too by the way.

I think....
I have seen tCs with the AEM CAI installed, prob is that they made it one piece and it's a pain to install, but I have seen a few of them

every power mod you do will be the same wether it be auto or manual, the engine is the same. its the automatic transmission that loses a chunk of it.

Well.... Ive had both the Weapon-R SRI and now the Injen CAI on my 2005 Auto TC and although the Injen I feel performs better and pulls nicely in the upper RPM range, I am still looking for better. I feel both intakes lag in throttle response and are prone to heat soak. So, I just got my order of Spectre Intake parts from Amazon.com and plan on building a true CAI as layed out by Doc I. here: http://www.yoursciontc.com/forums/in...showtopic=7096 I got a K&N drop-in filter to top it off and will post some pictures of the parts and setup ASAP.
