    Cold Air & Diablo Question?

    Hey Guys;

    I just ordered an Airflow CAI and Diablo Tuner and I needed your opinion. From what I can see Airflow is among the tops in HP and Torque numbers and they are the only one I can find with Polished tube and no box at the end. I also think I just paid the cheapest price around for the tuner; $325 with usb and power supply. My questin is do i need a 180 T-Stat prefably Jet, and who gonna help me install it all? LOL

    Thats funny. Please tell me you smoked him. I am going to send you some links in the next day or two. And my girl and I leave for Arkansas Wed. So i'll catch up with you next week. I'd like to try and check out one of the Sat get togethers at Tinsel Town in Pflugerville. Hopefully they still do it.

    With the diablo, and the 180* stat, you change when the fans turn on and off. Your engine will run cooler. The stock temperature setting is higher, witch is a tad better with emissions I'm led to believe.
    Using the 180* stat with Diablo, and cai and cat back rules.

    I installed a carbon fiber airhammer cai yesterday myself. I know little about cars, but was easy.
    No harm in reading the instuctions I had with my hammer. Will give you alot of good information. For example. If your cai is long, it shows you how to relocate the power steering resevoir.
