I've got one fitted on mine matey, and it does sound very good, But you could do with heat wrapping the pipework as it goes over the manifolds and gets very very hot which is not good for the intake huh.gif

Going to try and change the angle on mine so its away from the manifolds and then try and box in the filter and add a direct air flow from the front of the lex wink.gif

Heres mine biggrin.gif

Fueling wise its not too bad mate, mine still does about the 30-34 to the gallon depending on how i drive whistling.gif seems to be better in the higher rev range than before but not really that much to shout about but it does feel smoother biggrin.gif the only thing is, Is that i dont hear it much now that i've got my big exhaust fitted laugh.gif
