HPS Intake vs Modded stock box

Hey Guys, thought I'd make a quick post about this. I just replaced my modded stock airbox with a HPS Intake and so far I'm impressed with the sound improvement!

I had removed the big chamber and elbow from my stock air intake, I kept the stock filter box and added a Specter 90* elbow. It made a big sound improvement, but nothing like what the HPS has added. The intake sounds throatier, and I now have some sound when I downshift as well.

Also the engine seems more responsive when I blip to rev match.

I'll check back later if I see any improvement in fuel economy

Can you post a video?

Do you have the short ram or cold air style?
