Does everything as stated, but be careful!

Factory air box removal went great, installation went great, it was my first time installing CAI, I read the instructions, it wasn't very clear which bushings to use and where, it was difficult to see photos in detail, if they assign a number to each part/screw and name them that, it would be better. Although that's not exactly what I'm aiming for. My problem with this unit, after installing all the hardware, I put the air filter in place and tightened the clamp and I heard a popping noise, then the filter came loose. I see the plastic on the tube that connects to the air cleaner is cracked. I was able to loosen the clamp and put the filter back in place, but now whenever I hit a bump it comes loose. I'll probably have to buy another one. I blame the factory for using such cheap plastic, I really didn't tighten the yoke tight enough to break anything. So, in hindsight, when installing the air filter, be VERY careful, push it all the way in and tighten thoroughly.

Pros
  • HIGH QUALITY: Made in America.
Cons
  • Fits
