Just wanted to know if anyone has bought from these guys and if so what are your thoughts about quality and such?

doesnt look to bad to me, never seen em before but looks legit...

 

Damn that's cheap! Looks good to me. The only thing that may not be too good could be the filter. If that's the case you can just buy the Injen filter or something and stick it on and you will have the exact same thing as a $200 intake

 

Bought it!

I'll let you guys know how it fits and such when I get it installed

i agree. The piping is pretty much just piping as long as the rubber parts are good quality and the air filter can be replaced with a better one. It should work fine

stick an AEM dryflo on the end of that stick and keep us updated.

 

Already have an extra K&N, so i'll have to let you know how it performs with that first. But shouldn't be much different than the AEM. Both are good quality.

 

replica AEM brute force intake.....

 

any bets on CELs with this one?

 

That's about what I'm thinking. But you never know till you try.

Early in the tuner revolution I had an eclipse we made a CAI for out of PVC and it worked like a charm. No CELs ever. It sounds like the MAS on the Balt might be more sensitive though.

well I'll keep you all posted.

by the way you think I used enough Acronyms to lose anyone

 

CEL from intakes on the cobalts are strickly from the oiled filters. I have an Injen and I have never had a CEL in almost a year since putting it on. Avoid the K&N filter and you shouldn't have a problem.

 

that would deff get the job done.

 

BooSSted

Thanks for the advice
I will certainly give that a try
it's always theh strangest things that can cause CELs

 

Any word on this yet? If so, could pics be possible? I'm interested too!

 

yeah, I saw that on Ebay, and I just said nah, beucae you never know and I just didnt want to risk it myself, lol but Im curoius to see how it turns out!

 

Are yo u just waiting for the dry flo intake now??? I wanna know too.

 

did they give you an ET on the shipping blue?

 

I'm interested in how this went as well

 

were is this at?

 

Doesnt look bad, piping is piping just without the huge brand name, let us know how this goes.

 

i love how everyone says this but even with an over oiled filter oil will not escape. atleast on the k&N

 

Well fellas,

I know some of you have expressed an interest in how this E-bay intake will perform on my balt. But it is probably not going to happen for a few months. I have not received the intake yet and I will be out of the country starting next week for 4 months. If anyone else is feeling adventurous I hope you will post your results for the rest of us. When I get back I'll certainly let everyone know how mine is performing.

Take car all
See you in four months

 

try it and let us know.

until you do, the numbers dont lie.
people with intakes or dropins with oiled filters get cels. probably about 50% of the time. sometimes more, sometimes less, depending on the filter/howmuch oil/intake brand.

people with non oiled filters dont.

 

well if you look at my mods i have a K&N intake ive never seen a cel with it and i oiled the filter my self.

 

If anyone would like to try one of these my supplier carries them I will sell 1 at my cost if you would like to try it and give pictures and feedback. Let me know so i can order one.

 

They say it's modeled after the AEM Brute Force (which is the truck intake line by AEM) but it looks identical to the Injen.
