It's a little shorter and much smoother than the stock one. We also were able to relocate the BOV return hose using the stock hose to make it all look a LOT better under the hood. We HATED the factory hose routing it just looked horrible. The tubing is mandrel bent 304 grade SS. The lower i/c pipe (and our upper i/c pipe) both work with the factory FMIC and will work with our FMIC for the car.
IMPORTANT: This item does not work with the stock airbox.
NOTE: THIS ITEM DOES NOT WORK ON THE EVO X MR.
