    Thumbs up CES Racing SRI now with pix!

    Hi Guys

    As you all know, I was one of the people who participated in the CES Racing SRI Group Buy organised by 2XS (Troy).

    Best $400 spent to date. Turbo spools quicker, just feels overall, more punchy. The noise the SRI makes is awesome, and you can actually hear the turbo working!

    HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who has a standard Air Box.

    Buy locally, and support the local guys!

    That's my car!!

    Thanks for all your help Troy. I think this is one of the better (cheaper) mods to do. Stock box = restrictive = sucking air thru a straw. CES Racing SRI = more flow = no straw effect

    Notice the factory cold air pickup being used.

    Opinions on heatsheild? What about a cover/lid? Should we do a lid? (for more cost)

    Options: SRI, +filter, +heatsheild and +lid/cover. Do you think options like this would be used?

    Hey Rino

    This is a "trial" fit. A new & better one will be made next week.

    Troy had to fabricate this one to make sure it fits. More R&D was needed on the Gen2 over the Gen1.

    Once final fitment has been done, new pix will be up!

    A lid can be made for interstate buyers if requested.

    I'm pretty interested but like Thane want to know how noisy it is, is it fairly quiet when runing like a standard 3 then awseome when on boost or just noisy all the time?

    also if it needs a lid to be legal in NSW then yeah how much for SRI, +filter, +heatsheild and +lid/cover? plus if i drive north how much for install? (Gen 1)

    cheers

    When you put the foot down, you will hear it sucking the air in.

    If you're driving like a nanna, no boost (or little), you'll barely notice it. Stomp the loud peddle, and it'll roar.

    I think having the SRI more enclosed with a 'lid' will cause more sound (accoustic).

    Advantages of living in Qld = no lid

    It's listed in group buys. Free install.

    For coated SRI, heatsheild and filter $400. A lid would be a little more expensive.

    a youtube vid would be great, as the noise is a real issue for me as i use my car for work and can't really show up to clients with my car roaring, however a different story when i'm cruising on the weekends

    thanks 2XS, will have to see when i'm next up north
