i'm going to wait until some people have them installed and i can get some responses as to performance increases. if everything sounds good then i'd probably purchase it.

Im so pissed, SO PISSED :banghead: The instructions for the kit SUCK, and there are parts missing, it was supposed to have 5 rubber connecters, but they only put four in the kit, that came a good week and a half after christmas, when it was supposed to come BEFORE christmas. Im very dissapointed with their organization, and I want them to send me that last rubber connecter PRONTO. I paid over 300 dollars for the kit, and they cant even count their parts before they send them to me.
Anyways...
I rigged my own setup, using their piping, and a S&B powerstack filter on the other side of the throttle body, and therefore I bypassed the need for a 5th connecter, because the S&B has a rubber connecter built in... and it sounds VERY, VERY NICE. Also, I have to sit down and think about it for a while before I can figure out how i am going to assemble the airbox. Everything that WAS included in the kit seems to be very high quality, and they even included 2 license plate frames, and seat belt shoulder pads. I was very excited about it until I found out i didnt have everything i needed to put it on. Here are a couple of pics...
