Yea its a good deal cause its $50 bucks. The filter alone is $50. So grab it. You wont really gain too much from it but it will look better than stock.

Yeah thats what I was thinking. The filter is pricey so the whole thing isnt bad at all. I think I will get it. Thanks for the info.

$50 is a great deal. I paid $125 for mine new and I thought that was an awesome deal. There's not really a differance at all besides BBK, Mac, K&N, etc intakes. They all do about the same (nothing ).

Thats what I thought....So pretty much it all comes down to looks when your choosing one of these CAI's.

yea... a CIA is (i guess) just something nice to have under the hood and could, maybe, provide something when you get up into the really high horsepower range

I actually just installed the JLT CAI. It was a huge pain in the A@@ but imo it was worth it. Anything over stock is better. Also i think JLT looks the best of all the CAI's too. People say CAI's dont doo sh*t for your car and what not, but if your car is stock you'll notice a slight difference. I just put on exhaust and the intake, so i can feel a complete throttle response change. So for $50 i'd ****** it up...i paid like 200 something i think for mine.
