Honestly, I forgot that I had it. I got tied up with all my other minor mods. I'll see if i can make some time to throw it on and let you know. Maybe someone else has done it already and not posted??

Awesome! Glad to see somebody has it. If you can, post some pics for us. I've been ready to buy this little thing for over a month but haven't because of fitment concerns.

What about the headers? Did you ever do anything with them?

The MBS headers work well. I had to dimple in the same spot that many have. Besides that, I love them.

Although, I do not believe that MBS will be carrying them again. He said that he wasnt selling enough of them. I think you next best bet would be OBX.

Ok, so the bad news is that I ordered or received the wrong size. Even if i had the right size, i would'nt have installed it. It just looked off hooked up to my CAI. The color was just too grey. I'll post a picture up of it in contrast to my plain black one in a bit when i get some time.

I suggest that you look for some "carbon fiber" that is more black than grey.

Also picked one up. Ordered the 4" version since that's what my CAI calls for. The new one does not fit as snugly as the previous one, and is also nearly twice as wide as the previous one, and because of that, the fitment is a little iffy. I'm going to run it on mine for a week and see if any issues come up. So far there are no leak sounds, but because of how wide it is, the fitment is a little stretched (luckily the material is fairly flexible, so a little stretching shouldn't cause any issues). In the near future I'll try to cut it down to a more suitable size. Here's some pics of it installed.
