man id buy it it looks fine. by the looks of it its got the rubber adapters so it wont leak. just throw an aftermarket cone filter on there and the eliminates the crapy one they send, if they send one. the maf looks like it will fit fine. i don't know why you guys knock these companies. Just because it's cheap doesn't mean it wont work. Maybe he just wants to throw and intake on there so that if wants to turbo, hes not trashing a $200 injen cause of the pipeing. IMO

The 02 sensor is in the exhaust, that is the MAF sensor in the intake.

I got AEM. I'd recommend that one. It throws a CEL every once in a while, but so does everyone's that I've heard.

An air intake system is only as good as the filter used. It's not worth it IMO.

Get something quality.

I like my GMPP intake. Whatever you get, make sure it's a dry filter, not an oiled one like the K&N. GM has put out a bulletin about the problems with getting filter oil on the MAF. The GMPP filter is dry. If you must use a wet filter, make sure it's only JUST damp so it doesn't shed oil onto the MAF.

If you want to see the GMPP intake, click on the how to links in my sig.

honestly i had this intake before i got my new one and i thought that it was amazing quality for the money the welds on the inside of the pipe's were a lil sloppy but other than that it fit amazing and i didnt notice any performance difference between this and my new one my friend has a fugita and they were almost exactly the same so in my opinion which should probably count a little more than the jack offs that havent had this intake you shoudl get it if you dont want to spend the money i hope this helped you out.

I bought an INJEN for mine and I have no complaints. I had one of those ebay intakes on my old car (Eclipse) enough said. I had nothing but problems with it. I'm glad I spent the extra money this time!
