Default Just installed my K and N intake tonight.

Like title says, I just put in the K and N intake tonight. Took me an hour to install. While I had the stock intake out, I changed my stock hid to 6000k bulbs and put in Piaa superwhite high beams and led city lights. A very fun night for me. Intake fits pretty good, not perfect but I would say a good 98% if you ask me. Car feels alot more wanting to go now, growls alot earlier than stock and sounds way more sportier than stock. I purchased it at ExtremePsi.com for $320 shipped. There is definitely power gain with this intake. Going to the track in 5 days, wonder what im gonna run.

Please try to get it dyno'd...a lot of people are waiting for some solid independent testing to see if K&N's claims are true or not.

+1. Getting the early V8 note is tempting, but not at the cost of possibly losing torque.

Congrats on the purchase and I'm glad you like it thus far! Did the engine throw any codes when you put it on? Did you unplug the battery? I'm with everyone else and waiting to see independent dyno #'s

I drove the car almost 100 miles today and no cel. I didnt disconnect the battery but I cleared the ecu with my obd scanner. Car runs really nice now, seems way more willing to rev over stock.
