My friend and I are having an argument about his installation of his V2 intake I just sold him. He says that there should not be that much empty space after u get rid of the airbox and now he's hesitate 2 drive his car because he thinks it done wrong. Please, he needz a visual representation of some1 elses install so he knows it's right !!! Thankz

Why could go wrong with an intake not put on properly? It's just a pipe with a filter at the end of it. Unless it's very dusty where you live, an intake that's not properly installed won't really do anything bad.

Tell your friend to start learning things about cars before he adds parts. I love it when people that don't know squat buy ultra cool and amazing products like that gimick Tornado.

Yeah, I got a whole 20HP with the Tornado

Anyway, he really should clearly be able to see that is the space that was taken up by the stock air box.

20hp by itself, probably like between 50 and 75 HP with other mods like a header and exhaust. It also will at least double your gas mileage. Check out their website:
