i remember a short while back that someone bought it and was very pleased with the install and fitment. Do a search later, it should be in the archives. Hope that helps....

I have heard that all the intakes out there for our cars are just filters on a stick. I'm sure that its proboblay all the same, except filter quality may vary.

I bought one from speedinfiniti I think, it fits just perfect, great quality and sound.

yes which ebay intake do we want? I want it to extend past the battery just enough that I can squeeze a filter on between that and the greddy i/c pipe...

There probably fine, theres no rocket science to CAI's. I just bought a short ram of ebay, but haven't got it yet. If it sucks oh well it's only $20.

CAIs are crap unless you like the sound (I do) but I feel you get what you pay for. I got a AEM one. You might at least put in a K&N short ram if you can find on on there for 50 or so...

I've heard mixed reviews on ebay intakes. Unless you're just itching for the sound effects of an intake...save your money and do a K&N drop in filter (or save for a name brand CAI).

Sound is good, i used to have AEM and i spent 200 on it, and this one (from ebay) cost me 30 or 40 and is the same shizz, belive me same shizzz... All you need is better filter, well if you find difference in autozone one and ebay one... But really name brands you pay just for the name, like i said before its a freaking tube, i can put AEM sticker on it and sell it for 200... So
its your choise, i dont see any difference in tubes, just in price and name
