You can see them at advanced Flow engineering (aFe) Air Filters & Intake Systems or (I hope this works):

I'm hoping someone gets this one soon^^^^ I want to know what it's like. Or if someone here has it shoot me some pictures or a link to your post!!!

I got the Injen intake not long ago and definitely felt an difference, not sure if I got the 6-7hp but overall was happy with it. I got the intake for $160 well worth the price since I got 2mpg more than stock. I have a auto btw.

My Last Station Powerbox chambered intake came in the other day. I'll hopefully install it this weekend and take some pics, maybe my first DIY perhaps

I redid mine with the tubing from o-reillys:

shinier and better looking, thicker tubing. I noticed an improvement in power and the sound is much louder too :-D

and yes, coolant smells like ass, especially day old coolant.

sugarphreak, how are you liking the intake manifold? i am looking to get one after the exhaust, what kinds of gains are you seeing. i heard weapon r fixed the cel problem?

Hey that is great news, I am so happy I was able to spare somebody from the coolant waterfall

The only thing to look out for now is if you ever loosen off the intake from the throttle body it wants to pop the filter off as a result. When AJR installed my manifold they popped off the filter and I didn't even notice for a bit. Anyway, it is good just to keep that in mind.

I love the manifold, it sounds pretty cool when you hit the gas... you can actually hear it sucking air into the engine. Kind of sounds like filling a compressed air bottle.

It is a bit on the expensive side, shouldn't be any issues anymore with the second revision out. Mine kept giving me a low EGR light before, I am swapping in the rev2 version either this weekend or next weekend. It gives great gains, I have a dyno lined up for the 30th of this month. I will share the results.
