I had one for awhile. It was very easy to install since it bolts in exactly where the old air box does. I didn't like the weird sucking noises it made, and it seemed to reduce low-end torque, so I eventually sold it and just put a 3" tube in my stock airbox. The 3" tube, cut to exactly the same length as the original, brought back the low-end torque, and didn't seem to reduce high RPM horsepower at all compared to the Optiflow. I know some people like the sounds the Optiflow makes, but I thought they were a little much. If you really want an open-element air filter (I had one on my Civic and loved it) Taliaferro Saab also sells a new Speedparts intake that's half the price of the BSR Optiflow.
