Well Fox is a hard act to follow. Talked to several OGs with mixed results. I know, (T-Rav), it goes on the other end. Is this a $280.00 noise maker AFTER TUNE? K&N straight barrell. Feedback welcome!

I just routed it from the pvc outlet on the passenger side valve cover to the catch can/atmospheric breather and from there to the rear of the driver side inlet. I made my own bracket to mount to the timing cover. Reason was to keep crank case pressures lower. Works really good

I'd like to say things in Taiwan have better quality control since they have actual free enterprise corporate entities that follow copyright infringement laws but most people wouldn't know or care. China = communist controlled businesses without a care to end user, replicating brands, or respect for US laws.

LOL Megan was originally trying to knock off or piggyback off Mugen which evidently worked on some.

**** it looks awesome and only cost $240 more then a new filter... I would take it...

Did you get the holiday black Friday deal on it? I was going to get a bunch of stuff from z1 but ended up spending $500 at zspeed and then felt poor.

Wish Z1 was 25miles away from me.
