I have been running an FTRA on my Z28 for six months and have had no problems. It is definitely better than the stock setup. There are many opinions on these and it has been discussed at length on this site in several other threads.

We've been selling them since 1998 and they have been tested many many times with the same positive results. Users also typically see 5-7 % improvement in fuel economy.
We are also the only company to include a block off plate to disable the kit for testing or very foul weather. The kits are on sale right now for 152.99
Thanks

I have had mine for a month and installed it with a few other items at the same time (larger MAF and ported TB). Car pulls harder for sure.
I had a fitment issue even though I followed the directions to the T. I had it intalled and all the holes lined up but it did not line up with the base for the filter/lid (about 3/16" off). I had to round the mounting holes out on the FTRA and also trim the plastic piece the FTRA slides in to on one side so that I could adjust it to the left (as looking at the front of the vehicle) enough to get it line up.
I don't now why it could not be one piece either? The wing nuts used to tie the lower upper piece together looks like an after thought.

I put this on this summer and i didn't notice much difference in acceleration until about 100+, I am not saying that it doesn't help at slower speeds though. I haven't been to the track since it was installed. I have not even had any problems in inclement weather. I live in the north Dallas area during the summer and it rained nearly every damn day and I never had a problem with water getting into the intake, though I did take caution when the water got deep just in case...
I made my own with some sheet metal that I got from homedepot and some rivets.
