Sorry... SOLD a long time ago.
IMHO these intakes are ONLY any good if you live somewhere where it doesn't rain that much (or if you just use the car on dryish days).
The Injens sounded GREAT and I felt that they made a noticeable impact on performance especially at higher RPMs; however I found after running on the highway in the torrential summer rain that we get in Florida... and then turning off for an hour or two I would find the car jumping and juddering next time I started and tried to accelerate.
When this happened I had to turn the car off and let it sit for an hour or more before it was driveable again.
I eventually discovered that this was due to the MAF sensors (mounted MUCH lower in the Injen setup) actually getting visibly wet... in the stock position they are much higher and probably dry off with the heat of the engine. IMHO the MAF sensor locations are too low for the sensor to dry out when parked, from residual engine heat.
These are just MY opinions and observations... I accept that I MAY be wrong!!
I am currently using R2Cs in the cooler months, and a stock setup with silicone intake hose and K&N drop-ins in the hotter / wetter months.
Hope this helps someone else!!
