Default My Hurricane CAI Thoughts

TODAY I installed my Hurricane CAI from WCC performance. I'll have to admit that I was a little skeptical. I had heard rumors on how the stock air intake was already considered performance, and how other CAI were actually more restricting that stock. However, I have to give it too WCC HANDS DOWN! The second I got on the pedel, my C5 Rawred to life. This is by far the BEST upgrade that I have invested in. For any of you that are on the fence... Jump to the other side and buy this product.

Had to let everyone know about my great experience with WCC and their product!

The biggest difference is the pull in 6th gear! WCC is great to work with.

I have a friend who just traded his C5 for a C6 and we pulled the Hurricane off the car prior to it being traded in case anyone is looking for one. He really liked it as well and said he could feel the difference immediately.
