Nothing exciting.

This is one of the many air intakes I've installed over the years. The fit and finish is great, installation is easy and everything looked beautiful once installed. Some parts were a little tight, but it all sort of slips in and fits with a little pressure. After installation, the car responded better to the accelerator pedal and the sound became excellent. The downside is that fuel economy has dropped more than we'd like. This isn't surprising, but it's worth noting. Also, I didn't see much use in it, so I ended up sending it back. I did notice a bit of spike (around 5000 rpm), but on my normal ride I never got far enough into the range to notice it. For the most part, my review can be summed up: looks good, easy to install, noisy (which was a good thing), fuel economy is better, and the benefits aren't great. Assuming I had other updates on the computer, they would remain installed.

Pros
  • HIGH QUALITY: Made in America.
Cons
  • Out of fashion
