These CSL airboxes are complex - the engineering & design expertise is not only for performance, sound but most importantly: reliability.
In this Special Series, I document my CSL airbox experience.
I take you into my unboxing of the Haimus Racing CSL airbox, the hardware checklist, the tuning dilemma, installation notes and my driving impressions with proper sound clips.
Cheers,
