I got tired of being a driving Billboard and the size of the Dealership sticker was driving me nuts for the past month since I got her. Something needed to be done:

BEFORE:

AFTER:

So much cleaner look makes me feel so much better about the overall look, especially with these add ons

Sorry for so many pictures, but I thought you all would like to see first changes of Aya. Only having her for a month today (brought her home 10/11/2013) she is finally getting her personality and the CAI just makes her purr even more. Thanks for welcoming a newbie car guy to the forums and in such a short time you all have made me feel home.

Thanks,
Joshua

 

That sticker was MASSIVE! Looks much better now, and that color is awesome.

 

Looks good and agree great colour but i may be bias

Don't mean to bump my old thread, but I did finally get a video for y'all. Might not be the best, but it's all I gots. Enjoy

 

You can trim the engine cover up and put it back on and it cleans up the engine bay 1000%

 

looks good too, but i'm a little biased too... first thing i did was take off the dealer plates.... they did no favors for me, and i refused to advertise for them

when i brought her home

about 20 mins later

had to go with something mopar based, so i put on my graveyard cars plate

 

Gotta love the "CITRUS"

 

whats funny is not alot of people like that color, and my response usually is.... are you making my payments for me?

 

Yes yes much better, very nice!

 

Well my wife suprised me with an early Christmas gift and got me the Injen CAI for "Aya". Here are some pics of the before and after from the install yesterday.

For the show-n-shine kid, what does that thing do?

So how did you get that off, Joshua?

CAI help out with feeding your engine cooler, cleaner air, for an improved air/fuel mixture. It helps out with MPG's as well as HP with more quality air getting to the engline.

So how did you get that off, Joshua?

With the sticker, all we did was gracefully with a heat gun we heated up the sticker and then with a plastic razor blade peeled back the sticker. Once completely off I took some de-tar (or goo gone/tint remover if you have it) and went over the rest of the residue until it was all gone.

Thanks for all of the great responses back. I didn't mean to post and bolt last week, but I had training all week here at work and this week I'll be back in the forums more regularly.

As far as the MPGs I am seeing a great improvement with it getting colder here in South Central PA. I hyper-miled her on my way to work last week and was averaging just over 36 MPGs where before the CAI I was getting just over 31. So not bad at all... also I see the performance improvement with her when getting off the line against my buddies 1.4L Turbo. I will get a video of the sound because boy does she sound mean now

 

@youngsmith53 hey bro, you've inspired me to build an awesome dart just like yours! One quick question, I have the dart 2.0 auto base model, I want to add the injen air intake, would you recommend i add the rrm spectrum tune first? Or can I just purchase the intake for now?

 

@Ravesoe, check out this conversation starting here at post #915 of the build thread. That should give you a heads up on what my thoughts are with the injen vs the spectrum when first starting out. Hope all is well and thank you for the complements.
