Stock intake already consider cold air liao. So what u want? Bro, told u I never go examine the engine bay liao so not sure how is the air-intake mechanism in our ride. The CAI I am referring to is to connect the a pipe to our airbox and go down to the fog-lamp area. But that always makes me worry about water being suck in.

I know what is CAI. Our current air intake setup is already so call CAI. Our air is taken from outside instead of from the engine bay. The air inlet is somewhere at the front grill. Nowadays alway flood. You still want to channel the intake to the fog lamp area. Haha.. Drive a SUV but worry about flood. What a mix feeling manz..

Yea man... ours is similar to CAI already. Since not much hardware to do, I won't be even changing the stock air filter. Not to mention adding a unichip Q and tune. Might as well stay stock all the way. U guys know anyone else driving techno orange sportage? I find that my front bumper is of a different shade of colour from the rest of the body.

To all brothers who own the Sportage SX, May I know during your 10,000km servicing, do you have to pay for the engine oil, oil filter. Thank you.

If I am not wrong, our theta 2 engine runs on chain not belt. You may want to check it up with KIA engineers when u go servicing next time.
As to belt or chain better, there are pros and cons to each. Chain is not all rounded better than belt and so is it vice versa. But I do know that chain can last much longer than a belt but it is less efficient than belt.
And yes, any consumables will be paid for during servicing. But u may bring yr own engine oil and get a $30 discount, if I dun remember wrongly from what the guy told me last mth when I did my 1k servicing.
