just made a purchase. intake looks well built, and as of the price how can you beat it. review coming soon
REVIEW
Packaging: everything was included, the box was packed very well and the contents were protected with wrapping
Installation: simple, no modification needed. all clamps supplied were used. I was very satisfied that the heat shield lined up, the rubber gourmets were pre-installed as well as the stripping around the heat shield.
Driving impressions:
normal driving: you can hear the induction noise very well, you can hear the turbo instantly with a push of the throttle, you don't have to get on it to hear the intake
spirited driving: simply amazing. I have had the apr stage 1 & 2 intake before and this intake sounds so much better. if you are looking for a turbo that gives you the noises of blow off, this is the one
Wide Open Throttle: on the butt dyno I definitely feel something there. based off observations on my boost gauge (mechanical) I can see I get to full boost quicker and seems to hold boost longer to the redline.
I haven't been able to do after comparisons with the torque app but I will get those when I can. for the price you cant beat it, simple as that. I based my purchased decision on a few different things. confined filter heat shield with the velocity stack. this filter measured 5". is does use the stock MAF location, no need to worry about fuel trim issues.
