Well today the corksport test pipe went in and all I can say is WOW!

the actual piece itself looks to be of good quality

Sound: at idle the exhaust sounds nearly stock. daily driving the tone is deeper and maybe a little louder. you really hear the difference when you get on it, it sounds deeper and louder, but not overly.

Performance: IMO the test pipe netted more gains than did my CAI, of course that's completly subjective without any numbers to back it. traction in first and second is becoming an issue with both of those "power" mods.

Something worth mentioning is that the fitment was TERRIBLE. the provided bolts were too long and there were issues getting it to fit to the stock cat-back. if you have a stock downpipe/cat-back and want a test pipe, look into the SU piece

it might be just that my eyes are going bad but that pic of your CAI looks like the lower portion of it is not mounted right, There is a tab that comes off the tubing that should connect it to your frame with a rubber piece, and I see that tab sticking out to the left towards your shift linkage....
 
I found a new difference from 08 to 09! On my 09 the shift weight is painted black........thats like 30 hp atleast. How did that Corksport Race Pipe mate up to the stock CB and DP?

Edit: Sorry I just read or original statement above, thanks.

i believe your talking about the vibe mount, if so it's because i bought the piece used and never got it.
 
There are many post about the poor fitment with the CS pipe where it connects to the stock cat back.
