I didn't see anybody calling this a cold air intake. It is a short ram. And as such, has it's place within the world of intake systems.

If you want cold air, then by all means, spend $350+ on a cold air intake.

If you want a short ram intake, and everything that comes with it, then spend $50 at Autozone or $200+ on a name brand.

At least you have choices.

As far as pros and cons, I'll let those with degrees and such lay into you. Because obviously you beat my knowledge of all things automobile, with my pitiful 15 years in building, street racing and blowing up stuff.

Funny, really. Just because you own a Honda Fit, people assume you live your life vicariously through Fast and the Furious and import mags. As if I was some kind of bench racer, keyboard jockey, wannabe. And that I haven't been there, done that, rode it hard, and put it up wet.
