Well thanks alot for your feedback guys, some of you guy don't like the FIPK, any reason why? just want to know so I know what im dealing with before I install it. Some people have said its very good, and yea LOL I like J's Racing but the snorkels are too expensive and I don't think it sounds as good as a CAI or the FIPK, then again ive never heard one in person. How are the power gains on a snorkel compared lets say to the FIPK

BTW im planning on getting Work XD-9's, it'll probably be my next mod.

Narek -- i agree that you'd probably be more satisfied modifying the stock box and adding a snorkel (replica cheap one should work just as well). i didn't notice a difference with the FIPK really, and it heatsoaked like crazy in the daytime.
