FA20Club CAI

Hi All,

I've been doing a bit of searching to see if anyone had any experience with this CAI. I have seen a lot of discussion about Perrin's version but none on the FA20Club version.

They look essentially the same with the Perrin version being more expensive and by the looks of the very low res photo on the FA20club site the FA20 version goes all the way to the throttle body and has less bends in it.

The FA20club version also has a folded cotton pod type filter whereas the Perrin version has the foam type. I'm no expert but I have read in the past that foam doesn't perform as well as the cotton folded type. I would suggest based on my reading though that Perrin probably did some R&D and found foam which works better though, so probably not an issue.

I would be interested in hearing any feedback from anyone who has bought this along with any dyno pulls & videos etc.
