It's worth it man. So what if it's no name. Truthfully, an intake is an intake is an intake. They are all metal piping and silcone hose's. That's it. The filter makes the difference. You can see how pathetic the K&N knock off one was. That's why I switched it out almost immediately. I have seen the 240 kits as cheap as $30.00 but the going rate is usually $40.

As for it messing the idle up, it should'nt have any real affect on it. The MAS is just reading the amount of air going in. That's it. Either it was malfunctioning or there was a vacum leak in the system. It has to be AIR TIGHT or you'll get a stall problem.

Also driver or passenger side does'nt matter. It will still work either way. I did'nt feel like moving my battery.

Im gona take some better pic's of it and I'll post them so you can see just how much stuff I removed when putting my intake in. I have had NO problems either.

KNOCK ON WOOD!!!
