Cheapo intake

I just purchased a cheapo cold air intake on Ebay. it was like 29.99 w/shipping. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSA...69253544QQrdZ1 . Anyone buy this. I know you guys are gonna say I shoulda dished out more loot for a z-tube or an injen or something... but to me, they're all the same. just a non restrictive tube with a filter.. I got an automatic so I didnt want anything fancy, just wanted it for sound. anyone have positive comments?

What it REALLY does is make those guys money...on shipping.
Item=$10.00 Shipping = $18.99

I'll go with what LightsOutG35 said.

WTF didn't you buy a z-tube for a few more dollars and have a better quality item that you won't have to worry about falling or breaking off in your engine

I just recieved it. no instructions, but it seems simple... I will dyno it. But "NOTE" I'm not installing this for power gains. Just for sound. I'll post again soon about this.
