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!

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.
