u'll just lose power instead of gaining it.... and ur mpg would decrease as well... this is because generic filters do not perform as well as K&N filters... also, with CAIs, u wanna watch out for hydrolock (getting water into ur rngine)... best way to avoid this is to get a bypass-valve, which i have for sale
