Yes, I ordered it through E-Bay last fall and love it. I paid $329 including shipping. However, I think you can get them cheaper now. It was very easy to install. The difference is definitely noticeable when accelerating hard and the sound from under the hood is awesome. I recommend it, it's definitely worth the money.

I would recommend for the money getting yourself an injen or a stillen Gen3.
W/ the k&n its running straight warm air off the engine really defeating the purpose of a CAI, more running a WAI. The filters themselves are obviously a little better quality, but that's about it.

It reminds me of the slotted vs non-slotted rotor myth. Do you realize non-slotted rotors produce greater stopping power. The reason performance vendors make them is because there's a myth out there that they help cool and improve braking so... they make them cause they know people want them and will buy them not because they actually improve braking performance.

That seems to be a popular assumption unfortunately made without anyone having actually measured the temps. Having done so, I think you'll find that once underway, the airflow coming into the intake vents is ambient. To my knowledge none of the current CAI include a refrigeration unit to make then anything less then ambient. Granted they'll help at stop, but that's about it and it quickly drops once underway.

I'll be buying the K&N intakes and getting a tune shortly thereafter. I'll ensure to post results as well.
