I don't think there is any difference between the pre-LCI and LCI 550i. It's the same 4.8L engine, but to be sure FLY550i should keep his appointment.

I'm want one regardless. Is there a test with the RPI scoop with the AFE intake. I heard that it won't work with the AFE. If it doesn't gain much, I might want to start looking for the Dinan Intake and get another RPI for the other side like R1racer.
