I just got the same kit but haven't put it in yet. Waiting on my IC. I'd like some feedback as well, I thought they require a reflassh or tune as well once you put an intake on?

i dont see why its needed to get a tune right after... of course yes a tune will make more power but thats how it is with every car... it should run just fine on the factory tune.

I had the kit on my car for a short period. It is not a bad kit at all. But you will need a tune after.

You are adding a good bit more airflow in the system so you need to adjust for that. You may also have idle issues / cel codes.

i had it, hated it. poor fitment, very difficult to get to line up with the DINKY couplers supplied.... went back to stock, with AEM intake. MUCH better.

if you are looking for an UICP/intake... go with Buschur or ETS.
