Is that the drop in version...just replaces the stock filter, right?
I've got one on the GF's accord, gave us better gas mileage, maybe some throttle response to....probably not though.

I think this is the same piece they installed in one of the issues of focus fanatic. If it is the same it was a nice looking piece. Its a plastic short ram with a heat shield and a rubber gasket to seal it at the hood, and the filter had a carbon fiber cap on the cover too.
