I received my intake today.
All the parts were in good condition. Everything was packed well. Fedex was a little slow on shipping as my intake went to Kansas before Indianapolis.
There were installation instructions inserted in the K&N filter box. However they didn't work for me as I insisted on attempting to install my MAF backwards. :nono: I've installed aftermarket intakes before too, so, after talking to Mike and realizing my attempt at idiocy, I reversed it and it went on with no problem.
I had a couple WOT runs to 60, and it feels very strong. Very loud at WOT, however, at easy cruise you can't tell it's there.
As soon as I get my exhaust mod done, I have an appointment with Automotive Specialties in Noblesville, IN for my dyno runs.
During my installation problems I called New Era and the phone was answered promptly.
Thanks Mike.

Good to see that sponsors are taking care of their customers. :)

Be sure to post up the results of your CAI.

I'll post pics of the Intake here. Dyno stuff I need to figue out where to put it.

What about a video clip of the engine bay revving it!??

I'll post that today. Someone else can hold the camera. I'm too lazy to get the tripod out. LOL
I'll post it in my dyno thread though.

Sweet! I'm dying to hear the difference. I loved my CAI on my 2004 GTP :yumyum:

Uploading video now. This will take a few minutes. I think my dyno video has a better sound since it's not rev limited at 4k rpm's.
