Sweet! I was not sure about switching to the hiflow elbow, but this one is really nice, and will be a great addition to my Steeda intake. A bit steep at $200 though.

It seems like almost everything from steeda is a bit steep. I like their products but not their prices

Yeah, that would look much better than the rubber piece that I can't keep a shiny black.

Nice that this was advertised a week after I bought mine. Not worth it to me. I dont spend that much time driving around with my hood open, plus the gains arent any diff.

The black tube required some reducer to be taken off the stock inlet tube and transfered to the Steeda inlet tube. Is this still required with the new carbon fiber version?

EDIT****** You guys are talking about the vacuum line nipple off the stock tube. I thought you guys were talking about some kind of hose reducer like some of our competitors use... Nevermind that.

Yeah, that's the one I was asking about. Can you confirm it still needs to be transfered from the stock tube?

Thought it might help to merge these two threads:

I started one a while back not knowing that this one already existed.
