I think it's safe to say that the intake gave me about 2-3 extra MPG's and smoother acceleration. I don't know how much more raw power it really gave me, I guess 5-7 hp might be fair. Honestly, I'm not sure if I would've paid the full $300 for it. I got it for $75 from a man who was getting an X-Charger installed and that seems very fair. I definitely don't regret it especially since I've heard that when I get a tune for it I will have no noticeable difference in gains as someone who had an intake that requires a tune, so I still saved a couple hundred for the same performance. Plus I already have the great sucking sound of the air, and that's about worth the $75 by itself
