Does anyone have one of these?

I'm thinking about getting one, but have heard mixed reviews.

Any and all thoughts and opinions are appreciated!

i have the EST version. Nice, but IMO your still going to suck in HOT air. Not good. You may gain 5-8 Hp but mostly just sound.

True, it's not even close to being a cold air intake.

A few extra HP and a better sound seem worth it though.

Not for the price...

You can buy a cheap cone filter and make a shield for it. I bet you could do it for $50 and def. for under $100.
