Default Not worth the effort, IMHO.

The stock system is better than most aftermarket intakes.

Default There are many possibilities...search the 12v forum

For modifications to the stock intake, check out Mr. D's setup...or you could get a proper cone setup so that it doesnt throw an error ;o

Default It's amazing, well worth the money...

Mance does an incredible job...I had definate performance gains from the TB alone, and even better performance once I got rid of the bulky restrictive airbox and flexhose. Let me know if you have plans on an intake hose kit, I can tell you exactly what to buy, as Mance's hose kit is no longer available.

Default second.

K&N oil will affect MAF sensor.
You will increase risk of sucking up water and destroing engine.

Besides I have measured temperature inside the motor compartment - it is almost the same as outside.

If you want to spend some money - get better tires (or separate winter/summer tires) or brakes.

We already have cold air induction, a good factory design!
