Default Falken CAI?

Searching eBay for a CAI...came across this...

http://item.express.ebay.com/F...sItem

Looks like its a pretty good setup for the price...anyone ever use this CAI before?

Any information would be great.

Thanks.

After looking at the box...it doesn't say Falken on it anywhere...just says Factory Tuned...

Should I try it anyhow? Or probably a waste of 50 bucks? It looks to be of decent quality.

It ISNT of good quality at all. I can tell by just looking at one of the rubber grommets on it.. These cheap ones always leak unfiltered air through cheap grommets that don't even fit. The piping is likely very thin and the filter is crap.

for the price, you've got generic intake plumbing and a filter thats worth a trip to the firepit.
