How about some reviews from the people who actually have the CPE intake installed. Is there a noticable performance gain? If so describe it. How is the vehicle different now?

I know there are a few people here who have these now, but there's been very little feedback given.
 
I just bought one off ebay for $160 brand new....the seller didn't want to install it so he put it up for sale. I can't wait. I'll let you know once I get it.

Care to show a link (assuming you already won the auction)? Just curious if its a true CP-E intake.....if so you got a heck of a deal.
 
Sorry...I have been away. The CPE intake sounds great....But get use to hearing the spooling of the turbo in low rpms. It is very audible even inside the car. Its not that much louder than stock as the rpms go up. It enough to hear the turbo spooling. It definitely feels quicker.

If you don't mind hearing the turbo spool up even at low rpms (unless you manually shift at 2000 rpms each gear) and you want a quicker CX-7, then get it. I love it and so does my wife.
