Its only somewhat worth it IF you pull the upper manifold and take a dremel so the opening of the manifold is 70mm. Might wanna wait until you get an aftermarket manifold.

No, it won't fu ck your car up.

You will not see much from the TB so I would wait for a new intake. Cams don't do much if anything on a stock engine. You also can get a better cam then the e-cam. They are a bit dated and there are much better ones out now.

You don't have to pull the upper manifold to open-up the intake. Just stuff some rags in the opening and grind away, if everything else is stock on your car, I wouldn't waste the time doing it though.

The typhoon is a good intake, it is what I am running right now. I would wait on the TB since the typhoon has a 70mm opening as is. Good Luck
