K&N 57-3045 $293.99 - 57 Series FIPK, Air Intake / Cold Air Intake

I just want to make 100% that it fits before I order.

Im fairly sure it will, but the application guide says it fits the 3.8 FI. I dont know if the 3.8 supercharged is included in that as well though?

They dynoed it on a grand prix with the 3.8 sc, but im not 100% sure that its identical to my motor?

And, has anyone else ordered this? Did you like it?

 

Can I recommend NOT buying this kit?

I have it, it is terrible. Not a good Cold Air Intake kit AT ALL. The heat shield is a joke, and the intake pipe got so hot that it warped and created an unmonitored leak on my car recently.

I would like to recommend the ZZP Wizaired System

Really? Ouch, I always though K&N built a good product?

I also think the K&N looks better, but i dont really want the problems you specified.

The wizaired one looks kinda tacky imo, anybody have pictures of it installed?

 

I think the Wizaired looks fine.

 

Agree it looks fantastic, but performs terribly ESPECIALLY for the price.

(Also that's really high, I got mine for about $220 shipped)

 

Okay, the wizaired one does look awesome!

Is the install easy? Its a lot cheaper too!

Does it make the supercharger whine more noticeable? because im looking forward to that more than anything.

 

Also, my car is completely stock, so would it be the standard version that i need? Im unsure if the MAFS is in the TB.

 

Yes you need the Standard One.

Also don't forget to add a filter.

 

Alrighty, well thanks guys! I'm probably ordering it tonight, i will post again if i need help with the install!

 

There's an install write-up in the HOW:TO section
