Strut tower brace & CAI

I am having a hard time figuring out what CAI intake to buy, that will go with any strut tower braces. I have called both CAI manufactures to see if they know if theirs would fit and they either said "not sure" or "no". I have also called two strut tower brace manufacturers and got the same response. I was considering the JLT true cai or the densecharger. And for strut tower braces I wanted either Kenny Brown or MM. I even called BBK about their cai, even though that wasn't one I was really interested in.

If anybody has any experience in this area and could fill me I would appreciate it.

Thank you
Jeff

I have the BBK CAI and Kenny Brown STB..

fits like a glove.. kinda snug..

If you get the KB piece, order the one for a Supercharged app.. or just talk to Rich and tell him Todd has it on his '01 vert..

Good Luck!

Thanks for the info. I will have to give Kenny Brown a call. How do you like your Kenny Brown strut tower brace and your BBK cai? Did you notice a difference with either of the two?

If anyone else has info on a strut tower brace and a cai, I would like to get as many ideas, problems or suggestions I can get before I make any purchases.

Thank you
Jeff
