If it's not leaking it will run "ok" but that certainly isn't going to flow air as it should. You may can get it to last long enough for PRL's titanium inlet to hit the market if that was something you were considering. They are fairly easy to replace.

Maybe just reshape it and put duct tape on it to hold it together as a temporary solution?

I ordered an oem one off ebay just so I don’t have to worry about it. Definitely upgrading once 27won or prl drops theirs though.

I tried to push it back into shape and it’s really happy with its new shape, so I’m afraid of damaging it more.

I mean…plastic is entirely sufficient and cost-effective for an OEM air intake on a normal (non-$100k+) vehicle.šŸ˜‚

True, and if you’re careful handling it and tightening stuff down (unlike me) it shouldn’t really be an issue
