Well, so far I'm happy with this mod. Especially considering the cost of replacement filters, its nice to have a permanent one. Don't really notice any differences performance or fuel economy wise and I didn't expect to.

Haven't cleaned and re-oiled it yet, so I'm not sure how much time that will take, or how easy it will be. Will keep you posted.

Definately think this thing is worth the price though!

Store service, contact, delivery, problems, props: N/A

Initial product impressions, quality: Good

I picked one of these up mainly so that I would not have to be replacing the paper air filter constantly.

Store/Site purchased: Canadian Tire
Cost/Shipping: $80 Canadian plus tax
Store service, contact, delivery, problems, props: N/A

Initial product impressions, quality: Good

Instructions, good, bad, none, etc: Came with a gasket, but my airbox didnt have anywhere to stick it to like it showed in the instruction so i stuck it to the underside of the airfilter.

Installation notes, easy, hard, PITA: Easy

Performance, appearance opinions: No noticeable gain

drop in gas mileage, rough idle, sometimes so low that the engine dies, fluctuation in rpms at idle, like 650-1100, then back to 650, etc.
