Does it do much performance wise? I hear it sounds nice, is that about all it does?

i dont think it helps performance but i havent found a good place for the cold air feed.think i ll have to put it on the bumper,or get a green enclosed.

i have my cold air feed so it gets the air from under the bumper, gets full of stones tho but its ok if you clean it now and again. the spray wont do anything performance wise but the viper does, and as its enclosed its not that noisey.

the best way to clean an airfilter is vacum clean it 1st then use a hair dryer n blow everyfing out of it.

worst thing about these viper kits, the bit that looks like carbon, is a sheet covering metal which gets hot, and soaks the filter in heat, reducing its effectiveness.
