Default 98-02 K&n Fipk

I'm thinking this post will probably get moved or deleted or something since this isn't a sponsor but I figured I'd be doing a injustice to other ls1 f-body owners if I didn't just post it.

I was browsing around ebay about 2-2½ weeks ago and stumbled accross what I thought was an outstanding deal. I found the K&N FIPK system at the buy it now price of only $221 plus $15 shipping. I figured I'd wait until I received it to post in case the seller was difficult to deal with. Shipping did take a little while but it was worth it. The auction is over but I would imagine they will sell more. Ebay Auction

Everything worked out great. After I paid for it, 3-5 days later I got a letter in the mail from them saying the kit would be drop shipped direct from K&N since they didn't have any in their warehouse. 5-7 days later it arrived. I saved about $138 buying it from them rather than buying it local to me. Deffinitly worth the wait.

They usually go for like $309 locally here, sounds like a good deal but it is ebay- its supposed to be.
