Anyone else have the AFE stage 2 Intake? They did a shitty job with the boot that attaches to the TB. It's too short and is a really tight fit. I had to buy an aftermarket boot to make sure everything was connected correctly. Anyone else find they made it too short? It sounds and performs great. But for the price, I expect the product to fit without any issues. May get another Intake just for that fact lol.
Yes, I grumbled about that. Spent more time getting it secured with the clamp-that was a PITA-that it was secure. N52 'rocks just a wee bit, while
the aFe box is semi rigid attached. Popin' off was a worry.

7-13mm more could have immensly improved the value proposition!

Oiled too. Scoopers to complete it. BUT, new resonances orig IM 2700 down to 2500... no extra charge, and a coupla more decelerating@higher revs.

I like it-at full chat snarls angry over 4k
