its huge, and doesn't fit very easily with the stock front end. My paint is chipping where the corners are poking into the front end and the front end has been stretched to the point that there are little ripples in it. But it keeps my intake temps down, definitely does the job. I can't really comment on pressure drop.

I suppose putting a piece of sheet metal at the corners of the IC may have prevented the paint chipping, but its really just too big for the small opening on the stock front end, IMO. It will better serve you with a '99 or aftermarket front - again IMO. But thats not to say I'm not happy with mine.

Just my $0.02
