Default Just installed AWE's S-FLO and did the DARINTAKE mod

So I wake up this morning and there's this dam bug on my arm and it FVCKIN BIT me and it really hurt. All I saw was a little red bug with audi rings on it any clue on what it was? So after I eat breakfast I get this urge to work on my car. Im still in my boxers when I find myself takin apart the intake?? LOL anyway I got the s-flo in and I must say no buyers remorse. I bought the s-flo used cleaned the filter and installed. But while I was at it I also did my own version of the Darintake (I drilled 15-20 holes in the bottom of the air box.)

WITH CHIP
Performance = B+
Mostly because I can say I really do feel my car was getting bad air flow my old filter looked really bad and I don't think everything was connected perfectly (Like it is now)
Install = A+++
extremely easy it honestly took 30 to install and do the "Darintake mod". All I needed was a drill, pliers and my hands. And the install was also kinda fun....
Sound= D+
There isn't much sound difference but there is a change. Put me next to a 2.7 w/ s-flo and one w/o and I'll be able to tell you which on has it.

WITHOUT CHIP
Performance = D
But I don't think I can really tell little mods like an intake unless chip is on
Install = A+++
easy
Sound= D
There isn't much sound difference but there is a change. And sound doesn't change from chip to non chip

In conclusion do not get the s-flo if your car is not chipped or your not planning on chipping your car. Also don't buy the S-Flo new because it's not worth $150 but I dunno if any intake really is....Would I do it all over again...YES I love working on my car and love buying things for it too. Well that's not all for today now I'll go and pick up some 710n's (seriously)....Oh man im bitten...

And there's no antidote for the mod bug venom. You and your checkbook just have to live with it.
