for $20, it is not carbon fiber but plastic
"BUT ALSO GAINS 8-15 HORSEPOWER ON THE DRIVING PERFORMANCE. "THE MORE AIR FLOW COMES INTO THE THROTTLE BODY THE MORE HORSEPOWER THE CAR GAINS."
this quote is bullshit, max gain: 3whp

I wouldn't buy it. I have a type s intake, and its great for daily driving, more torque/power down low and into the mid for better daily driving. But not as much power as I had in the higher rpms as the AEM CAI.

And it costs a good bit.
Where the heck does that "carbon fiber" box get its air from?

Buy it! I'll even give you a fortune cookie to go w/ your rice...
I'm just messin' w/ you...
I, like most others here, will tell you that you get what you pay for. At the very least, just get a fleabay SRI w/ a K&N. But fake carbon fiber ususally=****.

I wouldn't bother getting a k&n filter for the stock airbox - I had one and it was a huge waste of money. I did notice a difference between the stock airbox and the generic ebay CAI's you see everywhere though.
First off this is not a intake box at all. All it is, is your average metal pipe intake, with a filter that's too small. That carbon fiber thing is just a cover. Also this is NOTHING like a Type-S intake at all.
Oh and which of you fools is voting for the "Front-Mount" style intakes?

i was never comparing the type-s intake to the ebay one. i decided not to get it cause you do get what you pay for on ebay. but what about that feels intake? this is the first time i saw one, it looks more like an extention rather than a complete setup
