eBay Item. (Was it worth it?)
Was just going to buy a cheap/generic brand CAI system on eBay. I came across this item (#7951179199). Enter item # in search field on eBay.
Then I came across a link somewhere here on H-T to this http://www.memoryfab.com/detail/?id=306. It was the same intake I saw on eBay. It retails for $120. I thought it was a good find and was worth the money, but I dono.
Anybody have this intake system? If so, how is it? How does it compare to the J's copy intake system?

pipe+filter on ebay is 20 bucks.. and you can make your own induction box for under 20 bucks... that carbon fiber unit is open element.. basicly just sheilds some heat. I wouldn't pay for something i can make in half an hour...

I just don't know how to work with carbon fiber.
So, would you say that J's-style intake system is much better?

thats not a cold air intake anyways, its just an air intake. almost any low name brands (anything except like injen, aem, k&n, etc...) will produce around the same horse power. i wouldn't spend the extra money for the carbon box when A. you can make one like said, or B. you don't really need it anyways. your choice.
