Looks like a fujita imitation. Not sure if anyone has one of these or admit having it.

you get what you pay for. it will most likely fit poorly and it doesnt even look like there are any heatshields so you will most likely lose power. if you are looking for the most power get K&N drop ins, and some Cobb or HPS silicone post MAF tubes. if you want sound just get any SRI. they are all the same pretty much.

looks fine to me, actually quite a good find.
if you're cool w/ fujita, go with these as they are pretty much the same. why not save some bucks, no difference at all.

Try it out since your only going for sound, post a clip if you get it on how it sounds.

You could get that, upgrade the filters, DIY some heat shields and call it a day. I'd hope though that the diameter of piping around the MAF is correct but that would be my primary concern with a no name filter on a stick.

I wouldn't go cheap on no-name intakes. I mean... they are intakes and are supposed to keep debris from entering your engine... It seems over the last 10 years or so that people forget this.

^whs, if you do your research(google) you will see how important it really is to have the right filters on these in intake kits, most are pretty useless when it comes to filtration.
