I'm loving these quotes from the ad....

Horsepower gain come from the inhale of power and believe to be at least 10 HP gain and more.
Quote:

The sound of the engine is muscular and felt antagonistic straight from the hood. It has a different effect on individual engine; mostly move towards the positive side.

Yea my wheel spacers were from ebay. Claimed they fit perfect and were hub centric. We all know what happened their.

Actaully it will probably work as good as any other CAI out there. The stock air box is a restirction, and if you look in a stock elbow it strinks way down between the ABS module and Rad. shroud.

The name brands once have a plate to seal the air filter out of the hot engine bay, but that can be from a sheet of tin and a few screws.

Plus for $50 it will look nicer then Home Depo ones built out of PVC.

Oh sheeet true dat! I forgot about that.. i guess this is a no no

actually the cheap ones dont even go in that hole to get fresh air, id just go with a K&N or Moroso

Even the Lingenfelter is pretty cheap and just as good. All the intakes are the same, just depends on how much money you want to spend.

TheBandit 06-14-2008 06:48 PM

It had a K&N filter on it so i didn't think it could be that bad. I mean its just getting clamped on. But i dunno i may try it out.

sweetbmxrider 06-14-2008 09:43 PM

yeah but what they are saying is it stays under the hood and doesn't go through the driver fender area to get the "colder" air

Tru2Chevy 06-14-2008 11:48 PM

So it's really just a mass air intake, not a cold air intake.....should still help though.
