Question:

Is there a difference between reg. and cold air intake?

I want to purchase an intake system for my 2008 dodge avenger SE. Is there a difference in sound between a reg. air intake and a cold air intake or are they the same thing?? Somone help

Answer:

Do you even read what you type?
both - one without the other is pointless.
Use the brakes as you need to, rear to slow down slower, both front and rear together for quicker. Down-shift to stay in the proper gear for the speed being traveled and to contol the engine in a good power range.
Not so much a difference in sound, but if you install a cold air intake your airbox will hang low away from the heat of your engine forcing colder air into your car, thus making the car run better, cold air boxes typically come with their own high flow filter to allow more air than a factory air intake as well.
a CAI don't make much difference in sound that the stock intake but will gain about 16-20 hp, a warm air intake will definitely beef up the sound but not much of a gain in hp as a cai but more than a stock intake b/c it gets more air in, but also with a CAI you have a better chance of getting hydro locked so might want to avoid heavy rainy days and big puddles. also bot a cai and a wai will give you a gain in gas milage
