AFE stage2 intake (pro dry s) AUDI A4 1.8t B6

"First, this intake is for LATE '02 thru '05.5 B6 a4's. My A4 was an early '02 so it required a bit of modification for proper fitment and function. The use of the factory lower air box and air duct maintains "cold air" supply and helps retain a clean look in the engine compartment. The large composite intake pipe W/mass air fitting and large filter really help improve air flow. Installation is not very easy for the average diy'er. But can be done in about 1 to 2 hrs (early '02 needs add. parts). Effect: bit louder engine, Diverter valve can be heard. Smoother torque and throttle (seat of pants) Con: audible "whislte" around 2k @ light throttle. Overall: challenging install. Great results, great price."

"This is a great intake. I have a lot of experience modifying BMWs,particularly the e46 3 series. Ive owned 4 different cold air intakes, each $400+. Though the AFE doesn't offer some of the more modern aesthetics that many tuners do, such a carbon fiber shield (GruppeM), the kit really is something else. However, performance-wise I think this may be the best intake for the 3 series. And at 350ish its a great buy. This kits offers additional shielding that you can't find in conforti or ecis. If you are a performance buff that likes a good looking intake the AFE intake is a must. And Auto-anything does provide it at an incredible price."

Good Choice for the Honda Ridgeline

"Purchase: I bought this intake because in summer weather, the Ridgeline needs a little extra power, and because it has a cover over the top, which I thought might prevent water from entering the intake (It's open on the back side). Also, it was the least expensive. The shipping was free, it took about a week (surprisingly, it took several days to "fill" the order and for me to get a UPS tracking number). Installation: The directions were barely adequate, leaving out some little steps such as adding lock washers to the bolts, but with only three pieces to work with, I got it done in about an hour. The box sits right up against the metal fender, and the shape is a few millimeters off, so I had to force it a little, which scraped the inside of the fender (no will will see, its behind the air box). Performance: It sounds good, its barely any louder under normal diving, but really gets loud under full throttle, and loudest when the VTEC kicks in at about 4000 rpm."

"Overall it looks good and sounds pretty cool. I was not aware that I would hear the vaccuum after I installed it. There was only one problem, and that was that the box slightly dented the brace in the hood. About a dime size and it did not go through the hood itself, but I will have to rust proof the ding. There is increased gas mileage on the freeway, no doubt about that."

"I purghased this air intake for my 2008 Dodge Charger 3.5L. There has been nothing but A plus all the way through. I tell you, This one single mod will do a whole for engine. I can actually feel less restriction from my engine when I step on the gas. I feel more torque in the lower rpm's and not to mention, the engine has a deeper growl when accelerating. This mod has been an all around plus for the 3.5. It is well worth it."

"This intake was labeled 1997-2005 Wrangler TJ, but I purchased it anyway figuring on a misprint. Nope. Not a misprint. The air dam needed a slight modification to widen the opening for the AC line, and I gently bent the footing to align it with the factory mounts. Those mods took maybe ten minutes, then everything fit perfectly. The additional performance increase was immediate! I drove up the winding highway to Cripple Creek shortly afterward (over 10,000ft before dropping into the town), and the engine performed amazingly, in 5th and 6th gears nearly all the time, and never lower than 4th for the climb. My gas mileage has improved by 2-3mpg as well. Awesome!"

Of course I must disclose had K&N in a diesel F-250 and a Dodge Ram 1500 (gas). Now the AFE Kit is in a Ford F-150. Take it for what it's worth, I like the product, good performance."

I'm still having problems with the piece that connects to the turbo housing I can't get it to stay on it pops off, the clamp sits to far forward so when you tighten it it slides off. Other than that when it's connected it sounds good and it helped with gas mileage and horsepower."
