Default HPS intake feedback

I'm looking into the HPS short ram intake for my 2011 xb. Any thoughts on the quality and performance of the intake?

Thanks!

i have a 2007 scion tc and ive been using the HPS short ram intake for 7months now easy to install no CEL light it doesnt have that cheap look. intakes doesnt really give u a lot of horsepower for me intakes are for looks and the agressive engine sound i love the sound of my hps sri and its looks good too..

My ebay cold air intake has worked perfectly since the day I got it! No complaints here, and no cel's either!

Cold air makes more power than hot air. As already stated, if all you want is better sound and appearance, a SRI will do the job. If you want to add ~9 bhp, get a CAI.

You should have bought the AEM instead and got 8.7 bhp and 10.6 ft lbs!
