The price is pretty good...

I'm just worried about the product? Are all CAI the same?

It's a tube with a cone filter just like all the rest, except it has a heat shield that would actually keep from sucking in engine heat like the exposed ones do. May not be as pretty as some of the $300 ones but does the same thing.

how well do these actaully work? is there an obvious differnece in horsepower?

nothing very noticeable, but you'll feel some xtra power at higher revs. (45k-6k) it's when you're wot that our super naturally aspirated engines can fully make use of an intake like the one you posted. add some other mods and power can be easily felt. (chip, catback exhaust.)
