my pretty much custom intake sounds really nice, pushin the gas down in second makes it sound very deep. I overall like it alot. oh and regards to my post earlier about troubles, i guess you cant have a breather on the valve cover hose that was my dumb mistake, and i also had adjusted the throttle position sensor wrong and that fixed it all.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I'm having difficulty lining up my fender plate. Any chance anyone has better pictures of the plate installed? My AC lines are also making it a pain in the a-- to do.

that plate is a piece of crudola. I would recommend drilling the holes so it matches up better. I ended up just NOT using the plate because it frustrated me so much. You really don't have to use it.

If you are talking about the "airbox" plate that comes with the ebay CAI then you will probably have to manipulate it a bit to get it to fit properly. I believe it is more of a universal thing.
