you might get a 1/2 hp increase with it if your lucky. if you do get one look around. you can definitely find them cheaper then $70

You'll see a bit of an increase in the pickup. If anything, it's more economical than paper in the long run. Paper lasts about 25K km if you're lucky, and costs about $25CDN a pop. You should be able to get one for about $60CDN, or equivalent, - worth it if you have a new car and plan to keep it ( even over a 4yr lease )

$70.00? Yikes! I think they are only $35.00 even at Pep Boys.
I got my whole intake with a great filter for $40.00!

Yah I put one on about a month ago. Definately worth the money as far as economics go. My turbo kicks in a little quicker also. But nothing to major. Still worth the money if you ask me.
$68 at parts source.
