I cant say to much about the differences that I noticed between the two because I didnt have the SRI during the summer. I only had it installed when it was cold out side and I am sure that the engine bay would be a lot hotter during the summer time than the winter. Like I said I can hear the turbo more I think because it is right neer the wheel well. When the SRI was more in the engine bay. It wasnt a huge difference but I could notice it a little bit. As far as performance.....I think the CAI was a little better but not by much. The Cobb SRI is probably a lot better than the one I had but I can not say for sure. The main reason I went with the CAI is do to warrenty. I didnt want to be hasseled about it so I bought the CAI mazdaspeed. If there is anything else I can answer for you let me know. I hope this helped. Sweet pics by the way.[/b]
Thanks Jake. The warranty is one of the main reasons i still want the ms cai, but the price difference between the ms cai and the Cobb sri is amazing, and from what iv read the Cobb is good. Why dose the ms cai have to be so damn expensive! lol
