It's going to make the car louder and not get you **** for performance.

yes, i've heard that that intake decreases performance. my mechanic dyno'd his car with one and lost power, but when he put back on a 3'' diameter CAI, he gained back power.

if you already have a 3'' intake pipe lying around, just go and buy a velocity stack and a new filter to go with it. those are proved to give around 2-3 extra horsies.
