chyea- definitely not worth spending so much money when you're not really gonna get any gains from it. I got my "shiny arm" from ebay and a k&n filter and im happy with it =)
I am probably alone on this but i say stock wit KN filter is best .

i have the shiny arm from ebay and a cone fujita filter, works nice, but sort rubs into my brake line so Im looking to get the K&N since its shorter and wider, even though its gonna run me almost $200
@gerard- i actually wish i could go back to my stock arm and just add on my k&n filter. so im with you on this one lol
I know right ? the whistle from the stock arm sounds great and not too loud... at one point my car had more noise coming from the engine than the exhaust !
Pomp... it's all personal opinion but I think the chrome intake tubes look cheesy. Some guys here have really made it work but I had mine on my car for years before one day I looked at it and thought to myself, wow that looks really bad. I DID keep the open element filter though... lets the engine breathe better and gives support for future mods but I think 2HP is an overestimate.
I think I still have mine... I'm not positive and I would have to check... but if you wanted it I could sell you the tube and couplers for $20+shipping... PM me if you want it.
(I know this isn't the classifieds but it's on topic. Mods lemme know if I wasn't supposed to post that)
What color are the couplers? do you have pics, PM if you want.
