Dinan CAI Question

[jj1010]

Anyone installed a Dinan CAI? If so I had a quick question. After installtion I noticed the intake duct is not lining up with dinan carbon fiber intake duct for my supra. Is this a design flaw or part of the original design? There is open space betwen the intace duct and the bottom hole of the intake duct on the CAI. Thanks!

Mine has a gap like that. It’s not perfectly enclosed

Wonder why they designed it like that.. I dont get the point of that intake duct they made then. Might as well make it protrude out a bit more so it actually fits the stock intake duct... Thank you for verfication. Also any ideas how to make it a bit more louder? Was thinking of cutting away the front vent holes so its a gigantic hole in the front...

My guess is it can fit more BMW models this way. If you run it without the lid it’s much louder but that kind of defeats the purpose.

its probably fine but for your peace of mind, i recommend sending pictures of the install to Dinan so they can confirm thats how it was designed to be

Mine is the same way. The bottom does not line up with the factory duct.
