Um, great? Who said sell it? I just said it wasn't useful, except as a noisemaker. It would go great with a BOV.

And Matt, I realize that you can get better flow w/o screwing the MAF readings out of a properly designed CAI, but my point was that until you're actually maxing out the MAF voltage and/or needing the larger intake volume because you're making that much power, the stock intake/airbox is not a bottleneck. Basically, if you're on a stock turbo, you don't *need* anything more than the stock intake. And if you're not tuning the car, then a CAI will gain you nothing, and likely be a risk.
