Ok, got it installed. Pretty easy. I just have one question. What did you guys zip tie the intake tube module (right side of intake that also attaches to the MAF) to?

Thanks.

No it is not because it does not come with a CARB number. But it won't give out a CEL. I could be wrong. Descendant could have gotten CARB approved without me knowing.

This ____es me of. Out of 6 pages all I get is one picture and not one "oh this is an awesome product". Any info or updates??
This product is over $100 less than the competitors and I want to know if this is a product worthy of its cost.
Thanks.

I don't know what kind of information you are looking for. As far as the intake itself, it's a great product. It doesn't give you crazy horse power gains or make you take out an STI or anything. Descendant is an awesome company with a lot of background with Scion tC"s and xB's. Ever heard of Chris Rado? Well, World Motorsports and Descendant are the main two companies that he is backed by. Fit and finish is awesome. I only wish there was a way out of the box to mount the sensor that was originally mounted on the factory intake. I never had respect for Injen. AEM sadly enough isn't AEM anymore. They're owned by Pilot. I heard good things about Fujita but I don't know what's up with inventory. I had a CAI from HPS (Hiprospeed) on my tC1 and was very pleased with it. Any other questions or if you need to know more? Don't hesitate to ask. The reason why I like Chris Rado's crew is because Gary Kubo has been around before Rado was even racing professionally. He's a great engine builder who wrenched for his wife Lisa Kubo who is one of the top 5 contenders in the honda game in the 90's and early 2000's. Oh, by the way. it's at the right price. Spending another hundred or two isn't going to get you anything other than fancy boxes. The performance is going to be very similar.
