    Don't buy it.

    Water of money for no gains.

    Do an intake, headers, hv3 and tune.. Then you'll be set

    Alright cool, thanks for the advice, i actually just put an air intake system on my car lol and i have definitely been loving that im in the process of enclosing it and shielding it from the elements because winter is coming >=( I also have cut my catalytic converter out and added a O2 simulator to my car so that it wont trip a check engine. added a nice tone to it.

    Unless you're driving around without a hood, "the elements" won't bother your intake.


    Unless the element is fire. Stop driving in fire.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.
