I know this type of question has been asked on countless occasions but ive used the ''search'' button and im having trouble finding a thread which could correspond to my question.
What would be an ideal cai setup that could be used for late e-series model v8? Would an SSINDUCTION cai be suitable to what i might be after? they claim quite a few kilowatts can be made but im finding that hard to believe. Maybe go for the more convential setup, tickford snorkel with a panel filter and enlarging a bigger hole on the bottom of the airbox would be the way to go? Any pictures, links, opinions are again very welcomed......cheers

I've just got a EL GT intake snorkel and K&N panel filter. It seems to work well enough, although if I had my time over again I probably wouldn't bother.

Would I buy one new, probably not, I have one because it was on the car when I bought it. It will suck your hand in if you put it over the snorkel and give it a rev, so there's definitely enough air getting there to feed the engine. I'm going to add a Typhoon intake into the lower half of the airbox and then that will be more than enough Im sure. On a stocker, if i were you, go for the EL GT or AU3 XR8 intake snorkel (both available from Ford spares), and whack in a K&N panel. You'll get change out of $200 and it'll do the job just fine.

Well the car will be kept fairly close to stock so maybe i might go for the EL/AU snorkel with K&N panel filter and see how will go from there.
Once again thanks for the replies fellas!

Plumb a PVC pipe from the airbox down into the gaurd. Works sweet on my EL XR6
