I know you're right, but $5.99. You could probably recycle it for more money.

Sometimes they list things for very cheap and make up the price in shipping charges.

If the air intake gets away from the engine and sucks in cool air it works better than the standard air box, so even if its's a cheap makeover unit of a good one...it at least gets in cooler air...

It's a pipe and a filter, that's less restrictive than stock. It works. They're rather simple, but the more notable intake companies do their best to get the best gains. Also cheap intakes often don't come with the mounting reinforcements, etc. to prevent rattling and secure mounting.

I'm no resident expert, by any stretch... I bought one and all it did was sound kinda cool and kill my gas mileage. HP gain was nothing to talk about. I am shopping to replace it already... Sometimes you get what you pay for...
