No problem. I was not trying to hijack your thread. I just wanted to make sure it was known.

I bought mine at the price you listed a day before the $180 price was posted.

Intake itself is good.
THe stupid bracket is no good. It rub the radiator hose.
Had to combine two of the brackets to mount the thing.
THe breather rubber is soft cause the clamp tore it apart after one day.
Had a spare breather so no biggie.
The first intake that I own that's louder then my exhaust

Still worth the money to get through.

I had only one problem with mine. I have an AT BTW. The bottom bracket needed to be bent a little to not rub on my Transmission. Very easy though. As for rubbing on the hose, as soon as I looked at it I knew there would be problems so I made sure to mount it under the hose and have not had any problems. Here is a pic:

I used the stock rubber mounting bushings. It will have a bit of clearance. Once the engine heat up the radiator hose expand a tad and it will then rub. That's why I mounted it like Comtrekkie.
