intake alone isn't going to net you anything noticeable. If you're planning on doing more, then they're good. Just don't toss the CAI or short ram or even intake manifold on and expect to drop a half a second in the 1/4.

You wont get the full potential but you will notice a difference.

If you need "the whole puzzle" then most people have basicily a stock running car, cause most people dont have mods from air filter to tailpipe.

Everybit makes a difference.

yo........so at what point (mods wise) does your stock intake start holdong you back? i've heard they are good for 350hp is this bs?
all my friends the first thing they do is change the intake and they never get the bang for there buck they were expecting. i can think of so many things that will make your car faster at 500$. i think they just want the cosmetic part because it is one of the most noticable mods you can do looks wise.
