If you are wanting to have the absolute latest and greatest, then yes, your 3 month old CAI will be obsolete. I hope you don't apply that model (wanting the latest and greatest) to computers....

Realistically, I doubt that WMS will come out with a CAI that adds 10 more whp over the current HDI's performance level. More likely is a 1 or 2 hp addition at the crank, which is probably not noticable at the wheels. So, in this context, what does obsolete really mean? Probably not much.

It should work on an '06. There wasn't any change to the '06s in the area where the HDI mounts that I know of.

Ken
It probably can be purchased separately. But I guess I would ask why the desire to purchase it separately? The filter element can be cleaned and re-used.

Now I'm really confused. The Webb Motorsports HDI Box and the DDMWorks Cold Air Intake look the same to me. Are they? If so, who makes it? If they are not the same, what are the differences?

Every time I think I've settled on a CAI something comes up and I start the hunt all over again

Hope I didn't start something here as I am new to this board.

From what I have read on here via a search, DDM was manufacturing the HDI for WMS. That relationship no longer exists, so DDM is selling the HDI and WMS is working on the next generation CAI.

If you follow this and are not lost by all the TLAs (Three Letter Acronyms), you are probably addicted to NAM.

Shouldn't the moderator separate these two threads. It really doesn't seem fair for both WMS and DDM to be both under the same thread. I known the info is good but in fairness to both I think it should be split.

Um, they're the same product. Why split the threads?

anyone looking for information on the hdi, regardless of who's it is now, could use this thread as information. if it gets locked or split then we could lose all this thats already been posted.
