it's really kinda of a waste of money but it's a 3'' silicone 90' elbow or you can do a 2 3/4 90' elbow and the i got the small filter from work advance auto and then just put it together no check engine like and to me it feels like it pulls a little harder

just be careful with those breather filters. past experience and the fact that I had one on my HHR... these will cause oil vapors to escape into the engine bay and will leave a residue on some of the parts. I can take some pics of my valve cover for some comparison. You would need to wash the engine every once in a while. This has happened to most of the cars I have ever done this to. just a fore-warning.

The oil stink also comes into the cabin whenever you start the HHR (because the lovely vents default to "fresh air" every time!).

No breather filters for this guy.

Yup. Had mine on and removed it a short while later. I'm with you Mike!

That's cool new mods are not for everyone. That's why i don't try to copy every one else. There are thing that people do I don't like. But I am not some one to put it down it's there own thing.

I spend at least 10 hours a day in a machine shop. That smell is like home to me.

Last of all; while you can put any filter you want on the CGS - be careful! We tested a whole bunch of different filters and the "Outlaw" is the only one we found that adds some punch. This is most noticeable at full throttle (as it flows 33% more air allowing the VVT to "kick in" better as the computer compensates with more fuel.).

Do you have dynos to prove this ?

Don't think we'll be going there again anytime soon.
