Problems
If you don't have the air temperature sonsor be sore to tell them when ordering. Had to cover my holes for the sensor with duck-tape. Filfet rubs the hood a little. My filter has a hole in it now because it moves around from left to right to much.
Tips
Bend the metal where the brackets rubber buching is placed down. This allows the filter a little more top room and no rubbing. Also get a zip tie and tie the filter bracket to the carbon canisters clamp so it will not move and rub a hole as mine did. Get the little breather filters end a little wet so it will slide in the damdable little black box going to the AIV.
Thoughts
When I was getting my oil changed at the Superfast everyone working there took a look at my car asking about the filter. Looks bad ass. Car is a little louder but the high end hp around 6500 is worth it. I didn't think the filter was working the first 2 weeks I had it until I was passing someone and I felt a little jolt of power. I looked at my tac and noticed it was shooting up pretty quick compared to a month earlier when a piece of crap Geo storm passed me and I couldn't pass him. No prob now. Kicked the Geo's ass the next time. HA!!!
Other
Probably the easiest bolt on product for the 240sx. Definately worth the monet and 30 min it took to install.
