Default Air conditioning

Anyone notice a difference in their air conditioning after adding their cold air intake? My A/C isn't as cold as it use to be ever since my new cold air intake

probably since your "CAI" is now sucking in hotter air than the stock box, your engine is making less power. which means your AC compressor is less powerful now.
