Best COLD air intake for ASP medium SMIC?
Ok, I've done the searching and can't come up with any great ideas. I can try to find a used M2 intake, but are there any other options out there. I don't want a hot air intake.
Thanks,
Justin Wade

I would imagine that you could have found what you are looking for if you used the "search" function...
Off of the top of my head, I know Shane Racing sells one:

I did use the "search" function and did not come up with your suggestion. I will check it out.
The TKT is not a genuine cold air intake as all it has is a crappy aluminum shield to protect the intake from underhood temps. The old FAQ generally notes it doesn't work well.
Any other ASP medium SMIC compatible true cold air intake ideas.

The carbon fiber M2 CAI boxes are really nice. It's what you're looking for. Keep your eye out in the For Sale section, they are for sale pretty often.

Whatever works for you. get the racing beat intake mod for the stock air box. It is not much different than the M2 as it ducts outside air to the filter. I do not know if anyone has ever done any side by side comparisons of all the intakes. I know there was a member one time who dyno'd 19 HP more with a TKT style intake. There is more to the pettit intake than the shield, it also has you open up an area next to the radiator for more airflow. (probably the same area the M2 setip used to get outside air).
Just because an aftermarket part looks better than stock.... Changing it does not necessarily make it better performing.

just thought i'd mention i have the pettit intake and besides the fact that its a POS for the money (they must be making $300 on each sale) heat soak is ridiculous. i tested it with a remote temp sensor and shield or no, air around that filter heats up very quickly. and does not cool nearly as fast. its also too expensive but i'd buy any box if i had it to do again.
do these boxes also fit the large smic?
