When the SOCALM club visited Jackson Racing's garage as part of our tech day

back on July 27, I saw JR's prototype CAI for the 1.8 liter engine.



I took some pictures of the CAI unit, and also acquired a dynamometer

plot (Horsepower and Troque vs RPM) for a stock 1.8 vs. the 1.8 with CAI.

Pictures and plot are available at:

The prototype appeared very neat and production-ready to my eyes, so the

production units may very well be selling right now.
