its the carbon fibre that sells it. The intake looks bulky to me. How much is it BTW. IMO i would go with the EVOm intake.

I have talked to a bunch of performance shops about this intake and it Looks cool, but acutall hurts your performance b/c it pulls hot air from the engine compartment rather than the stock intake that pulls from the front grille. In my opinion it is not worth it.
