The cover was my practice for making my CF intakes...hopefully it works out this time.
I looked into the eBay knockoff ones as well, but having read multiple posts on N54Tech about them leaking, no efficiency, etc I opted to not get them. You should look into getting a couple real ones to see if that helps. I'm still leaning towards using a pair of the ECS ones since they have dipsticks but then again that's just one more potential vacuum leak, so that's why I haven't decided until I research other users results.
