If you run your car, and it is stock, you probably feel that stumble around 5-6k when fully on it. That was eliminated when I got the filter and as stated I probably would have been happy with that alone and kept my mpg's. The stumble was annoying me to no end, but since I had already bought the parts <shrug> lol.

Still love my car, but yeah the filter was nice when that is all it had. Butt dyno definitely felt the car responding better and the stumble eliminated.

Definetly the ETS intake. You will notice it right away in sound and power. I installed mine and love it.

This is a lesson I learned in the 90s, when Japanese car modding really started to take off.

There will ALWAYS be a faster car than yours. And if you're really just talking about getting faster on public streets, what the heck are you really getting faster for? Ultimately, there is also a limit to how fast you can go. Hell, you could turn your car into a funny car, go straight ONLY and do a quarter mile in under 5 seconds.

On the other hand, you can make a car as pretty (or ugly) as your heart desires.

I'm definitely more of the all show kinda guy.
