Why
Do people post thread titles that do nothing more than state a one word question/statement that could end up leading to an endless amount of topics within said thread?

I thought the point of the CAIs are to draw air from the bottom of the car for cooler air. Isn't that pretty much the same as the regular air filter except it's the size of a building?
