There will be gains, but so minimal that you wouldn't feel it. Although, it will sound lovely.

mainly for the look and sound, not feeling much gain, but similar thing applies to most of the cold-air intakes

About 5 hp. Not enough to feel, though some people imagine they do since it's louder.

I got mine on e-bay for about $300. Looks good, sounds great when you get on it, quiet during normal driving, don't feel a big gain in power tho, if any.

I just installed mine and took it for a drive. All I can say is...WWWWWOOOOOOWWWWW....what a blast! I am going to be gunning my car all the time now just to hear this awesome sound!! This bad boy should come stock on every car that rolls out of the plant! Who cares about the minimal hp gains...go get it right now for the smile you'll get every time you push that accelerator! And with the sale right now you seriously have no good reason not to get one!
