Is it worth doing the 'poor mans' intake?

I just installed a MAC intake for my V6 today. It was a snap. They aren't to pricey either.

I say go with Volant. Mac, air force one, and airaid are good brands I've heard as well.
Going with poor mans intake and you'll get a poor mans gain in performance. These things aren't like Lightning's where you can cut a hole in the intake box and feel a performance increase. The 4.2 doesn't suck enough air. Just spend the money and get a entire system. You'll be glad you did.

Cut the hole on sat. and I would say I notice a definate difference after driving it for a while today. I an going to replace the platic tube once I can finda pice to do it with. And honestly I dont see why I wouldnt get the same results thats basically all the intake is.
