Well I received my CAI yesterday and installed it last night. I love the new sound of the engine. WAY more agressive when you get on the throttle. The install was easy, took about 20min to get everything done. One thing that I did do was install the MAS upsidedown so that the "screw" is facing up for easy access. This way I can just pop the hood to adjust the screw. the pic below is the one that I bought off of ebay for $40.00. Overall very pleased with the results.
Also when I installed the CAI I noticed the my front engine mount is trashed (I could see through it) so I am going to be ordering the Ripp front engine mount today. I might also need the tranny mount, I need to go check it also (it's skweeking).
<----- off to spend more on my car!

I don't know if you have seen one of the OEM mounts before, but it has 3 slits. They're not liquid filled mountsI didn't know mine were broken until I replaced them anyway and saw my front mount and it looked great, but when I twisted it the rubber shredded

Ya the rubber is trashed on it. and I THINK that the trans mount is shot also. But I am going to wait to look at it after I install the front mount. I just ordered it from Deyeme Racing, priority mail. so hopefully I will be able to put it in on sat or sunday
A while ago, I ordered a kit exactly like that from "XOXOPARTS" on ebay.
They were supposed to send me this kit.
They sent me this piece of $h1t kit instead. (similar to but not actual kit)
It looks like "autoracs1" at least includes the correct size rubber cuffs.
Nothing fit. The rubber cuffs fit on the pipe but not on the throttle body or the MAS. Also, the cone filter didn't even fit on the MAS adapter. The hose going to the engine was all jacked up and there were no backets to mount the damn thing.
Just venting...please continue...
