I got a crappy intake from ebay. The pipe isn't angled right and the tab to hold it up doesn't line up. It pushed down on the shroud and the fan made a big ass hole. The bung for the hose leading to the iacv is too big making it really hard to get the hose on.
Definately, "You get what you pay for."
BUT! I only wanted a temporary intake till I save some money for other things. So whatever.

its way cheaper to make your own piping than top get it off e-bay anyways..... but i agree you always get what you pay for, expecaly when its "jdm" parts made in china.

Haha...Yeah I would make my own, way cheaper and really is not that hard. $200 for a Name Brand Intake is just stupid, for $80 you could have made one and ow you can call it custom.

"I bought some random no name parts off of ebay, and the description says it will work with everything from a 87 volvo to a 06 f`150. It won't fit!"

hAHAHA. good one bro, UNICORN. hahahah
If you're too stupid to make an aluminum bracket fit or dumb enough to pay 200 for a peice of aluminum with an AEM sticker you should just kill yourself now.

AEM is only like 120 bucks and the advantage of that over just a piece of pipe u make is its smog legal cuz its has that C.A.R.B sticker. otherwise im pretty sure its not legal or they wont smog your car or something like that? anybody know y u need the sticker or y u should have it or wut the deal is?
