I was wondering if mace does a OTR CAI that will fit a VX V6?
Cheers Jonesy

I am also wondering if its worth doing it to a Duel fuel vehicle?

Hey Jamie,

We don't make one to suit, nor would I recommend one on an ecotec, given the location of the throttle body on the side.

On a duel fuel vehicle it would be fine, however I would recommend going a manifold insulator first. Valve for money this would be the way to go.

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Cheers,
Steve

I know they exist, I just wouldn't recommend them :)

In saying this though if people still wanted to go down that path I would suggest people ask any manufacture if they're not happy with the product for a refund.

Cheers,
Steve

Though we're biased, I can't agree with this (assuming half decent setup). You don't need to take my word for if you can do the testing yourself as shown in the link below :)

In saying this though, depending on the current mods, I would recommend a manifold insulator first, or if your budget went far enough, a set of rockers.

that's a interesting link Steve, shows how much flow restriction the flexible convoluted sections if intake ducting have overall. seeing as all factory cars have these there is some easy power to be found :D
