Neither responded?

I guess I'll order one and see what happens?

I have the BMC filters & 99% believe that for ~$250 retail you get the pair. They provide a modest sound improvement and maybe a little HP gain. In hindsight, I would have saved my $ and kept the stock filters.

I'm personally not a fan of "upgrading" the stock airbox. IMHO, it's mostly cosmetic, and perhaps even poses a very slight engine liability. This is not a professional opinion, however.

I sent Fabspeed an email b/c they are a BMC dealer.

Thanks the reply though.

I got my BMC filter from Rennsport-1...best deal around. FVD was less than Fabspeed when I checked. I just prefer dealing with the guys at Rennsport-1.
