Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I have been thinking about the orange intake hose and airbox muffler cap/ cold air setup. More like a better air flow is how it looks to me. I have a Tip and have that extra line to the intake hose. I see it requires me to purchase a small breather/filter for that line. Has anyone done this and is it worth my time and $? I do want to keep the stock airbox.
Thanks!!
Sounds like you are talking about the Fabspeed cold air kit (not to be confused with their newer competition air intake).
I have the cold air kit on my non-tip. The car sounds better than stock (IMHO), a little louder and less like an electric sewing machine. There is no discernable (to me) performance difference.
I agree. I had the Fabspeed Cold Air Intake Kit and switched back to stock. Apart from the difference in sound at WOT, there is no noticeable performance difference. If all you want is the throaty exhaust sound there are other ways to block off the resonance chamber for a lot less $. Search for "orange cap".
I think this is them

I think that a few years ago Niagara Plastics got wise and stopped sending out free samples. You can beg, borrow or steal one from a fellow Rennlister (Niagara usually sent 2 sample caps) or find a substitute. IIRC someone had successfully used a Gillette Foamy cap.
Hey Rob,
Email me where you would like the cap mailed to, my email is:
