Complaint : WHERE'* THE INLET IN THE PIPE?, ITEM IS "HAND MADE"!! I'M VERY DISSAPOINTED

Complaint : didnt fit, no return emails, had to mod. just go buy k&n can filter strap to

A couple examples. You have to weigh these complaints against his praise. You also have to keep in mind "buyer beware". If his pipes are hand-made, you're getting what you pay for.

I agree with Willwren. I would be real leary about this. There are different TB inlet sizes throughout the year span they list so a "one size fits all" intakeis not real likely. Also differences in clearance from other obsticuls such as washer fluid resevoirs and air pumps. It may fit right in and work great or it could need to be moderately modded to fit correctly. Personally I would either build your own or get one from a reputable dealer (such as our sponsors) that you know will fit correctly and will have some "tech support" if you have any trouble with it. Just my .02

You'd be surprised what people will sell you through the internet. Even with photos, you need to be careful and always check references on ebay. Heck, even some 'reputable' places will sell you a bill of goods from time to time.
