you should have saved that $158 and put it towards a "turbo fund"
haha..right..dont have that kind of money..and I would be saving for an engine swap first...need to get rid of the sohc before a turbo...

just steel, but i loved it ... sounded great and the car felt better with it on ... in the high rpms with the stock airbox it felt restricted and sounded like s**t ... i got my muffler and highflow cat before i got the intake too.

no, not worth the money..I will just be careful..besides I have heard that putting a BPV on kills some of the hp gains
