Whats the status on the CEL that this thing threw? Is it still there, did you disconnect the battery while you did the install? Have you tried disconnecting the battery to see if that makes the CEL go away?

yea i was skeptic at first when you said you were getting this intake but after seeing it, it's a better buy then the injen.. as far as price and from what i've seen it's the same as an injen and i cant see what the difference can be

I might pick this one up if we can figure out how to kill off that CEL, because I'd like to avoid a full tune for a while, I'm not going that far until I get all the bolt ons done

I just installed the ebay 1 yesterday.I think it looks great even though I scratched the sie a little no big deal but for the price its a nice product.I drove it real hard alot today and raced my friends stock 2006 ss s/c I have the stage 2, so I cant say the system makes a big diff but I can say I love the sound of the s/c air going threw it .
Here is a link to check it out on EBAY ITS LIKE 80$US

I believe its 3inch piping
I have the 3.25 inlet filter on my car right now and i have no doubt it will fit fine.
they come with a hoseclamp and the inlet is a pliable tapered rubber.

AEM Dry Flow:

I dont know which size to get though. My guess is 5" long, and either 2.75" or 3.0"
Someone confirm?

I would probably go with 3.25 or 3. (3.25 inlet X 5 inch length fits the original ss/sc airbox)
they come with a hoseclamp.....
your better off having slightly to big than slightly to small.
cuz the hoseclamp is there to tighten it up. if its to small your gonna have to try and stretch it....which wont work.

Are you going to try out that combination an0malous? Keep us posted on if the filter is indeed the week link in this set up, because if there arent any CELs to be found with the ebay pipe and an AEM 3.5" outlet/5" length, then I am in...
if not, I may have to be the guinea pig
I just looked up the filter for the injen intake, and if this pipe is an injen replica, then I think it might be a 2.75" opening. If you go to Injen's website, and search for the intake for the ss, then do another search on the filter for it (part number X-1013-BR) you get a return on a filter with this description:
High Performance Air Filter - 2.75'' Black Filter 6'' Base/ 5'' Tall/ 5'' Top
Is this a reliable source to speculate on filter size for the ebay intake from?

As I have said before I am the 2nd tester for TJ on this CAI and I will be putting my AEM Dryflow on it. It is 5" long and the opening is 3.25. I will let you guys know about any CEL's.

Best guess at this point is the filter. I would be willing to bet its the filter, because everything I've heard/read is that this is a pretty good copy of the injen intake, which doesn't have a high CEL rate.

So how is the intake doing after a couple weeks of use? have you changed to the dryflow yet? have you got any more SES/CEL light come back on? and have you noticed a drop in fue economy? thanks
