I've been happy with my Steeda CAI until the other day. After several months of great performance, my engine threw a code, and it turned out that three of the bolts that hold the filter mount, heat shield, and air tube together were missing. Talk about wrong air/fuel mixture! The allen head bolts that came with it didn't have a lock washer under them. Just to be fair, maybe it came with them and I just failed to install them. At any rate, make sure if you install a Steeda CAI to put some kind of lock washers under the bolts.

Oh, and I'm happy with my CAI again. It works great now that it stays together.

Did you apply loctite to them?

No, I used split ring lock washers. I did think about locktite, but I figured the lock washers would be enough.
