Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

Should I be taking out the cossie CAI for the winter and putting in the factory intake? Or is it fine to leave in there year-round?

Thanks!

Mine is mounted up high, near the engine with just a short straight pipe going to the filter. So it's more of a high flow hot air intake I guess. So is it okay to keep it on there?

I might take it off and sell it anyways. I get much worse mileage with it on there. If I swapped it for my factory one, would anyone be interested in buying it? It's a full Cosworth CAI.

A short ram is fine in the winter, that's what yours is.
