Re: Is this CAI legit, please i need help fast

Clearance item, no return throws a red flag.

Chrome steel piping absorbs engine compartment heat and transfers it to incoming air, so you defeat the purpose of a CAI. The filter is a cheap K+N cone knock-off, they usually aren't worth a damn, look at the $10 ones in the import tuning section at Autozone, you'll see what I mean...

It looks to me like a poser system that wouldn't really do much for performance, and might hurt the motor over time by ineffective filtering.

You're better off with aluminum or phenolic plastic piping and a good brand of filter. Don't waste your money.
