BBK cold air induction

The BBK kit is a piece of S...!! I ordered it and it didn't fit right. For $160 I expected it to at least fit, but the angles were all a little off and the whole thing felt like it would pop off the second I opened up the throttle. I sent it back to Summit and bought the Mac kit from GTR for $30 less and it fit very well. I didn't notice a huge increase in hp or anything but it sure looks cool. The Mac kit also doesn't have a big plaque on it advertising their name like the BBK one does. I haven't had any problems with it, but my pony has been in storage for the winter. I took it out for the first time on Saturday and it rocked! My $.02 is to stay away from the BBK if your gonna go for it. It's mostly for looks as far as I'm concerned, I'm not expecting a huge hp increase.
