screw up or good call??
Hey I just bought this cause there was like 2 minutes left and it was cheap. Did I get something good or just waste my money?

good call, however, the filter is most likely going to be a cheap crappy paper filter. You can use it for a month or so but instead of cleaning it when it comes around buy a K&N cone and you'll be set for LIFE!
I used to have an intake off a civic that I had adapted to fit and it worked perfectly. This will be fine, the intake itself doesn't matter much it's the filter that is the important part. I came real close to getting that exact intake off ebay a little while ago cause I sold my old one, I ended up finding an AEM CAI for 50$ and I couldn't pass that up. BUt you did good

hahaha....McfallDan, you gotta pick up a real K&N filter! I heard on the news a few month ago something about ebay and working with UPS so that shipping price will be right. Ebay said that because of the bullshit ass shipping price its chasing people away. They needa start doing that soon.

Just remember which lines connected where. You will also need a screw driver and a 10 mm socket wrench
It's pretty easy, you won't screw up your car. I'll even PM you my phone # in case you run into problems.

yeah if you don't sell stuff on ebay, you won't understand. the stuff you sell, your almost selling for cost. shipping is just a little extra money you can cash in on.
