I found this on Ebay today, seems like a good buy. I would buy it but I am going to go supercharged on my 2.4.

Looks like junk to me.

You get what you pay for.

Key word in the ad text: "Intake should increase horsepower and torque ...."
Using the word "SHOULD" leaves room for doubt in my mind.

Looks like a homemade piece. NOt impressed buy the quality or even the look. I mean, look at that bolt and the filter.

I am not in the car buisness but I have found that it is nessicary to cover your ass, people will sue you or demand a refund if you aren't 100% exact to what you say so in todays society you have to make open ended statements in the buisness world. I do construction and I cant tell you how many peope say things like "I said purple, this is dark plum"

I'd be especially careful. The person has had only 6 transactions in almost 3 years.

To me looks like the mass/flow sensor is in the wrong spot. To me looks like you would have to make the m/f wires longer. And looks like some guy in the basement trying crap like everything else on ebay for the hhr.
