I just bought the K&N panel filter, dropped it in, and convinced myself that it made SOME sort of a difference. Did it? Who the hell knows, but at least I got to put that little stop sign sticker on the intake housing.....from what I've heard, that's good for about 20 HP.

i got that identical intake...ive had a lot of AEM and INJEN intakes an all my cars, and just thought for $50 shipped, their isnt too much to lose...so i purchased it, got it in the mail...and dang, i dont think im ever gonna buy a brand name intake again. its got an amazing sound, really throaty, but only at full throttle, the fit was perfect...all the sensors had proper spots to plug in, the filter was good quality, came with everything needed for install, and even instructions (incase you need instructions for an intake, lol).

but definately pick it up....it gave my car a really nice sound without having to put an exhaust on (which i didnt want to do, too loud)

fits perfect, sounds nice, no hassle install = great buy for 50 bux
