well if you stick with the stock air filter for now, yea its bout 10 bucks for the pvc and coupling, yea i think its totally worth it, its very easy just keep sanding till it will fit in the fender hole, the guy that posted the pics earlier in this thread did it wrong he got the wrong coupling you need the 3in to 3in rubber flexable coupling, the 3in pvc will fit its just a odd shape in the fender hole, youll notice the sound and it gets more air in so it will run better just make sure to disconnect the battery cable to let the computer reset

I did it about 2 month's ago. I have yet to see or feel any difference negative or positive. If anything it's a good excuse to get away from the wife and kid and spend some time in the garage.

No, nothing bad will come from resetting the computer. The only thing it could harm is your chance of passing emissions because of a p1000 code but that will clear itself after you drive for 50-100 miles
