Default Fsport intake. ( kinda weak)

So I just installed the Fsport intake but I don't notice much of a difference in sound or power!

You are not going to feel any noticeable gain! Just noisier above 3500RPM or so.

I definetly have to retract my first statement I made on this thread . Today my Fsport lower air box came and after installing I noticed a huge difference. The rpms seem to climb a lot faster than before. It's true about the sound becoming intensely different and louder after 3,500 rpms but I also noticed when getting on the highway that the speedo climbs up to 90 mph with ease where before it took a little more effort. I highly reccomend this mod, for $325, we'll worth it!
