Cold Air Intake - Hyundai Performance Forums

Are there any cold air intakes available for the NEW accent? I know there is one from the dealer but are there any other companies?

go short ram intake accent run better with them then with a cold air intake..... and it's easier/cheaper to buy spectre parts and build/customize your own.......

I second that..

with spectre kit's..you can make a true cold air intake for less that the overpriced hyundai joke of an intake..

That new "Hyundai" intake for the MC accent isn't even a cold air intake..it's a SRI which suck's warm air from inside the engine which doesn't make it faster..just sound's like a honda engine but the difference is the accent will still be slow,..and how much did they want for it?!

Tak82...I would expect different from you!..lol. You know as well as I do that for some reason, the Alpha responds much better to SRI's rather than CAI's.

uh..i had a sri in my alpha II before it was beta swapped and it made no difference whatsever..it just sound's fast cause it's loud

sri's rob the engine power because they suck in hot air from the engine bay

My avg. dropped about .1 in the 1/4 after my SRI install. That includes on hot days. Also an hour + drive to the track.

anyone know what components are needed for the Spectre Kits? I have an 07 accent. I suppose i could just buy the mock up kit... but if anyone has done it already, any help would be appreciated.

AND im a NOOB at this.

HELP!
