You might want to check current prices before you gloat like that. Adventon.com raised their prices some time ago.

That's a great price ... plus NOPI is listed as an authorized Injen dealer which helps for warranty service.

Actually they didn't....if you read closely you have to add the item to the cart to see the real price....

And if you actually take your own advice.......you'll see that the REAL PRICE is $151.26 after that rebate.....and that's just the subtotal. After adding their cheapest shipping option (ups ground).......the REAL PRICE is $163.14.

everyone who has installed this intake in their manual xB's, i have a couple questions... 1.) is the power difference noticable, and 2.) does the power difference taste like $150? thanks

u cant feel the 5whp increase.....it would give u slightly better gas mileage if u didnt lead foot it.....really only for looks.....150+ for a measily 5-6whp....not worth it....spend money elsewhere on the car...i got springs/rims/tires before the intake

You're excused. It's cool. I'm actually disappointed in Adventon........because I had been touting them as the lowest price out there.......and they WERE........but.......then they went and upped their price. Oh well.

i think for $150
5-6hp gain is sufficient...
i mean come on, how much HP does one expect to gain?
it's a 5% HP gain which is pretty descent in my opinion.. =)
and besides it's the sound that it makes that's cool

Note on NOPI.com: I tried to order from them this morning (2/24) but their checkout system doesn't use a secure (SSL) connection and the link on the "Verisign Secure Site" seal goes nowhere. If you're uptight about that sort of thing consider ordering by phone or using them for price matching.
