I know there have been a couple posts on this item...I was curious if anyone was planning on ordering one?

Clicky here for the item on the Dinan site

I got a call from Dinan a few weeks ago to let me know about this. It's around $700 installed. For 8 hp and 8 lb/ft, it's not worth the $ or warranty risk--I really don't think I'll feel the <3% power increase.

I am Waiting to see the cost and Power of the Cold Air Intake from Dinan. 8hp is nothing and it even says it would only be noticed in WOT. That really means you won't feel it at all!
