Looks good, easy install. Sounds good. Improves the appearance under the hood and seems to add to overall power in combination with a couple of other items.

The sound alone was good enough for me just hear my engine roar. However, I definitely felt the topped end power.

Affordable but no CA CARB Legal Sticker
This is a great product. It improved my gas mileage by 3MPG on the Hwy. However the support team said this is a CA CARB legal intake, but no sticker comes with it. So I get pulled over and they check under the hood I could get a ticket. Also I'll have to swap it out for the stock intake when I get smogged due to no sticker

Nice overall
It's a nice addition to the engine bay. A couple of parts were difficult to fit, but you just have to fight them to work. Noticed a slightly aggressive tone to it when at 2k RPMs.
