How would you feel about buying the intake used? There's a post for one, Gen 3 Long pipes, probably get it for 300-350. Is that a good move to save that money? or is this something you want to buy new

I'm confused. Why would a used intake be a problem? Just clean and re-oil the filters and you're good to go.

Oh a used one is just as effective as a new one...

...being that they don't produce a noticeable difference for the $300 + install hassle.

But that's just me.

Oh, the "CAI's don't produce power" **** again.

I guess all the dyno sheets floating around here are just wrong.

Correct, short rams are worse than stock. But CAIs show gains. The intake discussion pretty much boils down to either Stillen or MAF tubes and drop ins.
