from what I hear, it won't do a damn thing... except maybe make your intake hit your hood

I've been wanting to give it a try, but I don't wanna lose power. The idea is to swirl the air for better combustion. Now normally the intake ports on the head are dimpled to create this effect, which is why this won't help. My intake ports were polished so it might actually help on mine.

depends on what intake u get, if u get the injen one, it should be fine 'cause it doesn't curve up like the AEMs.
also it will make a whistling kind of noise.

i am not really sure about losing power, 'cause it doesn't really block any air flow.

A bunch of people back in the day have used this Helix Throttle body spacer. Very minimal gain... less then 1hp but apparently this thing makes your intake sound cool.
