Cold air fitment

Hi all,
Wondering who has an open top CAI that fits under the M7 strut bar without any edge trimming. I know the M7 and DDM with the top fit under, but do any open tops?
Thanks in advance,
JM

I have the M7 strut tower box with the DDMWorks CAI. If you must have an open top..you could take the top off the DDMWorks. It's only 6 small screws

I have a Helix CAI... not sure if a strut bar will fit over it. Anyone have one with the strut bar?

You could take the top off either the M7 or the DDM intake. But you want the intake to be a box to build pressure around the filter.

I personally have the DDM on my car and recommend it.
