Any video for the sound? and price? Planning to get the fog light also, but not sure where can I install them in Vegas, dealer must be expensive, maybe have to take it to your shop to install them? How much will it cost?

Sure, Tommy @ Music Box from South El Monte, CA can do the install.

You can call 1 626 823 2853 and quote for installation cost.

nope, K&N never have this filter design for sell on their own product.


This is a special requested by Gruppe M and the design of the filter made a huge difference in sound and air flow.

+1

These guys made me skeptical of intakes and filters. Would need to see proof before spending all that cash.
