This product was spoken about in the past..do a search. I think the end result was that it is useless...but not certain. Looks like just a fan. Do you have an extra cpu tower fan? try adding one of those inline with your CAI/air filter setup...

Most cpu towers have them. It keep's the inside of the tower "flowing" with air. some are mounted on front of the cases on the lower part.

if you want more power, just take out the MAF, and get a set of clippers, and cut out the plastic screen on the front of the MAF.

people with 5.0 mustangs cut the same screen out of their MAF and get a little more air flow.. like 1-5% more airflow.

I wouldn't cut the grille protecting the MAF; you're looking at something like a .5hp increase at the MOST, and the chances to damage your MAF goes up exponentially.

So, just don't do it.
