This. my son is 4 months and I have him in the garage when im doing anything to the car. installing speakers, changing oil and spark plugs, wiring up gauges etc, Today he learned how to do basic bodywork and priming ha. I know hes not picking up on this shit yet but I want him to get used to being in the garage. its the principle that matters, guys should know shit about cars, period.

Any reason in particular you went with the AIRAID intake instead of modifying a carbon fiber whale penis from PasswordJDM to make it fit the CTS-V?

Car = Awesome, however there was no need to do a write up of the install, nobody on these forums will ever be able to afford a car that nice

I assume there is some sort of hole behind the headlight or something? Props for a CAI that actually has a lid and keeps the air from the engine bay out.
