just thought that i would give a quick update!

i've now put 300-400 miles on and no problems... as i have said a few times, it might have just been my car! but since i put the screen in, it has worked flawlessly.

 

I sent umnitza my shipping address to recieve the new part where the MAF connects to. Still waiting...

 

yeah they said they would send me an extra one but i haven't heard anything yet. i hope i get one i've had mine longer than anyone and paid close to 100 more than there offered for now... damnit

 

Yea I paid that retarded price as well...its so much cheaper now. Ugh.

 

where's my royalty check?

 

LOL!! hey... you got my stock, um, exhaust! is that not good enough?

if not, then......... it's in the mail...

 

doh, payment noted and received

 

well still no word on me getting the upgrade... i feel ripped. guess i live and learn. don;t buy the first release of ANYTHING. i wonder if i can get screen to fit into original design. also i do have a question why is it that my stock intake only had 1 screen

 

try contacting them direct instead ...

 

i'm talkin to em via email.


also when you ad the screen to the simota how do you pull it out of original intake also which one comes out?

yeah it had 2 i looked again i'm dumb
but the front one was ripped guess something in my shed fell on it

 

I just received the new intake part today.

 

WTF?!?!?!?
did they charge u?

 

the airhorn is held in by screws in the OE intake box, when you undo those and remove the air horn assy you can (lightly and carefully) push out the back screen, or you can just order the screen material I posted a separate thread about; 1 ft square piece for $3 plus shipping

 

No they didnt.

 

ok yeah that sux. oh well i guess i shoulda waited and got one that had problems lol.

oh well live and learn..


and for team do you just cram it in there?

 

for your intake I believe it gets sandwiched between the housing and air filter horn

 

groovy thanx team your truly a help

 

here it is:

 

The intake will run fine with the MAG screen in. Without it you will have some issues. I'm running mine with the old tube still and even tho I have the new tube, I put the MAF screen in and it works like a champ.

 

yeah i still haven't heard nothin bout mine but i'm not gonna bug em. so far they have been awesome for customer service i don;t wanna **** em off and screw that up
maybe i'll buy some of that screen stuff and try that

 

if your intake is working fine, then why bother? or do you just not want to be left out? LOL

 

Well since I wasn't able to get a refund (30 days have passed, meh...) I'm probably gonna end up selling the intake on this forum. Too bad I wont be able to get anywhere near the 300+ dollars I paid for it when it first came out...Oh well, lesson learned.

 

wtf? they wont give u a refund?? didnt you request one before that 30 days bs?

 

its not that i feel left out. its just that if the have modified design than obviously the original had a flaw. now i have original. i paid around 250 for it. and i have to hope that they have an extra so i can get it. yet if i were to wait until now i could have saved 60-70 bux and got the upgrade and a decal for the top. though i like the one w/o it but i would proudly support the company by putting one on. sorry bout the rant. oh well

 

I seriously dont understand why this thread is 24 pages... I installed this intake in about a half hour, with one MAF screen as directed, and the car has been driving back and forth from connecticut to pennsylvania every weekend with not a single problem. Its not rocket science guys. just takes a little common sense.
