Mazdaspeed CAI

I realize this is kinda a repost... but the old thread stopped getting posts and had no information. I was at my local dealership the other day and saw the MS 2006 performance accessories booklet and saw the CAI being advertised in it with a product number and small description. I asked if they knew the price and they looked it up on the computer and couldn't find anything.

Anyone know pricing or release dates or anymore information than the short paragraph? I'm thinking about getting the RB but wanted to look into all my options first.

Bagman is selling it "preorder" for $350 right now (which I'm apart of) when it's supposed to be like $460+. Hope this helps.

you mean of this?

If there is a filter on the end of a pipe and it has Mazdaspeed written on it, people will buy it regardless of the design, confirmed power output, etc... etc...

why would they print that exact information in the 2006 mazdaspeed catalogue if it was wrong? doesnt seem like that would make sense

1. The description is identical for the MX-5, RX-8, 3, & 6

2. The picture is identical for the MX-5, & RX-8

They seem to be more of a placeholder than anything. Regardless, the only parts I will be putting on the car for the next four years are Mazdaspeed. Thus, the intake has been pre-ordered !

That's exactly the argument I made before being proven wrong

I took this photo at SEMA. The CAI shown had a tag stating it was for the RX-8. Also shown here is the new Mazdaspeed Sport Exhaust. Tube size revised, up not a bad thing, nothing to hint that anything else listed in the description is wrong or misleading. New exhaust shows Mazdaspeed is learning what we want and at what price.

Looks identical to AEM, which is probably what it is

probably not worth the extra cost over what they sell on eBay for without the MazdaSpeed logo
