if you want, you can buy a K&N filter for that...

or try to find someone on this site that is selling their AEM CAI.

thats a POS intake

rememeber when buying car parts, "You get what you pay for!"

look into a INJEN or AEM intake rather a cheap ol' intake like that cause you will need to take it off to smog the car anyways

so besides the obvious 5$ filter on the ebay crap, aem has better metal tubing than the ebay one. well one worth like 150$ more? i dont think so. yes the filter sucks, but....

Performance wise it will be the same if you get a K&N filter. Cheap shit is exactly that though...It will look like cheap shit, fit like cheap shit, and feel like cheap shit. I got an AEM w/ Bypass valve and never looked back.

I also have an AEM CAI no bypass... who buys that anyway... lol

but this has been discussed and torn apart many times its up to you... a generic one will do the trick. Might not be AS GOOD AS a name brand but pretty close once you put on the K&N
