I just got a 01 cl-s, and would like to start givin' her a little more kick. What would be an easy mod that could boost the hp without taking to much time or skill? aem cold air?

 

yep.

i would get the injen cai or the comptech icebox.

you can do a search on either one for tons of info.

 

What about removing the resonator and installing a home-made CAI? I know it had been done before...is there DIY instructions somewhere for this?

 

You can get a cheap-o generic CAI off of eBay for like $40 and stick a K&N on the end of it, I think a few people around here have done that. I got a used Injen off of eBay for only $90, You can find really good deals on used name-brand CAI's if you are willing to wait. That is the route I would go (and did) if you are looking to save a little $$.

CAI is probably the easiest. Then onto headers that would be a little more difficult.

 

Drop in K&N air filter.

 

comptech billet oil cap and icebox or any intake

 

The oil cap gains what, about 5 hp?

 

before you start your mod craze, try to consider the comptech SC and if you can afford it DO IT!

Hey, I know when I got my car, all I was thinking was "Man I can't wait to get a sweet oil cap on that car!!". It was first on my list of things to mod!!

 

although, given this is the "easiest mod" thread.... on the oil cap.
