Installed today, took about 40 mins.

Anecdotally feels like snappier throttle. But I have no data to confirm that.

Heres some sound clips.



Two notes on installation

1. Clearing the sensor plug is a bit tricky, and you will need to use some force to reseat it when you have the new pipe in.

2. Clearance is tight against the front Radiator mount, and I loosened the upper hose clamp and used a long screwdriver as a lever while coaxing the pipe down with a rubber mallet to create space.

Sounds killer...

I assume the front-mount version will have a little more sound/turbo effect?

Why would you think that? They are longer pipes.

Not quite the same brand, but same design. Since the filters are exposed to be in the front grill, they will be heard.

Front mount sounds awesome but you also have to trim plastic, I'd lean towards the top mount ones still until someone proves front mount actually makes the car faster.

And Swapping/cleaning filters requires facelift. And they're gonna get hella dirty there

Received this 7pm last night and of course they went right on. Using a microfiber towel between the pipe and radiator let it slide right in. Great sound.

I'm reading the install guide and don't see a mention of the torque spec for the strut brace bolts... anyone know what it should be?

Not sure. Mine were definitely not tight. Just snug them down but don't over do it.

Was driving out to SLO last night through the hills and this intake sounds great. This and the PSI midpipe really transform the car.
