Does a cold air filter kit make a notable difference???

I was once stopped for not having a plate up front. I explained how these car are not designed to have a plate up front after 5 mins of the officer explaining how all cars are required blah blah blah...I googled images of c4's and showed him how every one had no plate.
In summary...CAI's are a waste of money but they look great and Google can save you from a ticket!

For me the open cut intake lid was a mechanical fix rather than performance. The stock 1990 intake lid is metal, bulky and all scratched, I found as these intake housings age it doesn't give a good seal to the bottom of the intake housing. I found I was able to to drive some self tappers into the plastic open cut lid intake to give it a perfect seal and a flush fit.
I replaced the paper filter with a K&N for giggles along with the intake lid mentioned above but not expecting any great HP increase. maybe the lightened weight makes my 1990 go faster LOL. Joking.

It won't give you much. Maybe a couple HP at the top is all, if that unless you are modified.
