what do you think about this intake?

Found this on ebay. Looks to be the exact same as the AEM CAI just no AEM sticker.......now that I think about it that would cost me about 30 whp not having that AEM sticker

Here's the part, what you do you think:

Doesn't look too bad...

Just never been a huge fan of Ebay intakes.

It looks like it'll work alright. Actually looks similar to my homemade setup, while one piece instead of my 2 piece.

I think its to much

I just bought mine for $19.99 with shipping and everything to canada it was $56.99 USD ($67 CDN) so even if I have to buy a K&N filter i am still sitting at $75 USD which is cheaper than the intake you posted

dont see why so many people are so down on ebay intakes cause its just a metal tube with a couple of ports for sensors. maybe i will end up changing my tune when my intake comes but for now I say why pay $200 for aem.


Whats up people?

Exactly. Best thing you can do is swap out their generic filter for a genuine K&N

I know that I should only expect 1-3 hp from the intake, but I like it because of it being polished and my engine bay is polished/blue so it will match nicely. I'll post pics when I get it.
