Ultrik Cold air intake

Well, i just recieved my ultrik cold air intake. I had about a hour and ahalf window for installation before i had to return to school (17 years old). I though that i would have plenty of time seeing as so many people said that its a 20-30 minute job. Anyways, it took me around 75-80 minutes. Keep in mind i'm not a engine person, but i did get the job done. !!!!! I highly recommend two people for the installation!!!! I could have really used another pair of hands to help with things.
The results:
1) The supercharger sounds so much louder (it could just be in my head, but i dont think so).
2) i live at about 5000 feet, so i can slightly notice power, but at sea level im sure i could more.
3) im yet to see if there is a change to the MPG, only had it on 1 day.
4) Yah, it looks cool

I will add some pics tonight, im at work currently w/o a camera.

Oh yah, just a little side note, I ordered it from MiniMania.com and couldn't have been happier. They were great. I got emails every time the status of my order changed and also i recieved pdf docs so i could print them off properly.
