My Fernco is a chew toy for my dogs now b/c with my lid, I had too much angle for it to fit flush on the MAF. The top was all the way on, but the bottom was almost off the MAF, and the off-brand smooth bellows I paid $20 for made my lid not want to seal up all the way, even after trimming the hell out of it, so I'm back to the stock bellows for now..

I'm thinking about getting one....but it'll be for looks. I'm not expecting any power increases.
