Lucky bastard, i paid like 270 for mine. Its going to sound a LOT different after install, haha.

It's fairly easy... Just follow the instructions that come with it and you'll be fine..

CudaJoe Feb 16, 2011 06:51 AM

Instructions don't come with it, they can be found at the k&n website.

BooSSted Feb 16, 2011 08:31 AM

The install is super easy. I was impressed with how well it fit!

Get ready for some weird noises and whistles, haha. I love mine!

seeyaass Feb 16, 2011 09:14 AM

Lol that's exactly what I did. I've got the K&N SRI & Forge BPV just sitting in my basement waiting for the snow to melt before I put them on (hopefully April).

no not weird, but everything intake wise is louder, and the "bpv" blow off is loud and whooshy

Ok cool!!

Nabes07SS Feb 16, 2011 03:19 PM

You won't be dissapointed. You can really hear it whine after the install. Plus it opens up the intake more...look at the plastic one you pull out of there where it goes through the hole down into the front bumper. The pipe litereally becomes flat.

seeyaass Feb 16, 2011 04:21 PM

Cant wait to install mine!

good! I have my forge sitting next to me waiting for snow to leave :)

KnightSS/TC Feb 16, 2011 08:26 PM

Congrats on the intake OP I am sure you'll enjoy it!
How does it compare sound wise to dejons sri? Both I know are obnoxious sounding but was wondering what the K & N owners had to say?

1SLOLT1 Feb 17, 2011 10:47 PM

Gonna install intake tomorrow!!! I will take pics and video!!

mumpspro Feb 17, 2011 11:54 PM

I'd be interested in what you think of it...I almost hit buy several times tonight on the K&N...this will be the first "performance" mod on mine..

Tune first. It sounds bassackwards, but you'll be so satisfied with it that it will last you a year before you need anything else.

Squintz Feb 18, 2011 12:11 AM

Child's play. Comes with everything minus basic tools.

GMS1 is also on my "short-term" list. I don't want to hijack this thread with what "I" want to do though....just looking for insight on the K&N once 1SLOLT1 installs :)

Definitely will let you know with the pics and video.....will take before and after vids with my HD camcorder for sound and also try to see if I notice a difference in power.

I think my next mods will be charge piping and cat back then Trifecta Selectable Tune
