Cp-e Xcel Nano install and review w/ pics n vid

[skubidoobie]

Ordering mine tomorrow morning!

installed mine last night and am very happy with the results!

FYI to all those folks installing theirs, you need to loosen the battery box so you can slip the mount under the bracket. Also once you have the 45 degree silicone tube in place attach the breather line to the intake first then fiddle to get it to fit into place.


nice mod

I don't think you have to loosen the battery box. A little fiddling around with the bracket will get it over the studs.

The Nano SRI is a great mod to have. The sound is awesome and you can feel a difference in performance.

Funny thing happened after I installed mine -- now, when I hit the accelerator, I hear this intoxicating sound and for the first time heard the factor BPV. Downside...of course now I want a new BPV!

I have a feeling the rest of this tank of gas will go quickly...no big deal since 93 Oct is running around 2.40!

i know what you mean it was a pain to install, but i just used my finger to lift that tab up to put the part over the stock bolts.

I know the feeling. If you want a BPV, go with the Forge Motorsports BPV. It will sound sweet with the Nano SRI.

Just got mine in, but the install will have to wait until tomorrow as it is pouring down rain now and I don't have a garage. I think this is worse than waiting for it to be shipped. Damn

Oiled Filter

Noob question. I heard all the SU filters are the wet type. Do I need to oil it before installation? Does any filter oil work for this?

 

[ElSpeedDiablo]

well this intake comes with the option of choosing ither oiled filter or dry. I would personaly imo get the dry because oiling scares me

No! It comes pre-oiled from maker. Follow the directions carefully when it comes to clean and re-oil. If you over-oil, you can foul the MAF and screw up the air/fuel readings.

Pre-oiled, I love this thing! Makes more of a hissing screaming noise when you get on it!
