Currently aFe has plans to allow the sound tube duct to be cut open so there's an option for either way. I want to keep the tube because the engineers put serious thought and resources into implementing this little feature and you brought up a great point about familiarizing yourself with engine sounds. Regardless of whether it sounds good or bad, it adds character to this car and is part of its unique experience. I'd choose that over +/- 1hp.

They did the same thing on the LFA and people liked it but here not so much... I like it tho.

if its the same price of the Takeda I'll go with Greddy if its more then the Takeda..I'm just going to get the Takeda lol

i'm in the same boat, i've just always been a greddy fan so of course initially i'm opting for the greddy branded version... but i may end up just removing the "brand" label/stick in the future if possible to give it a more low profile OEM look (well more than it already does)

Yeah from the OP and again a few posts below that. But this isn't the final product, I believe.

GReddy Air Intake System for Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ - Sneak Peek - YouTube

Is that the sound with just intake and stock everything else? If so that is the sound of sex right there hehe.

They have a header in development as well, I'm going all Greddy intake, header, and SP Elite exhaust.

What's your source from which you saw a GReddy header being in development?

Link me to the post. I scrolled way down to the bottom of their timeline to when they first joined fb on April 5. Every post was visible so I did CTRL+F for "header" and nothing came up.

Edit: NM I found this pic from April 10. But that's pretty old and plans may have changed. They don't have headers listed anywhere on their official greddy.com site.

If it involves a foam filter, ditch it for something else.

Otherwise, this and the air raid designs are both well done, safe from potential hydrolock, and nicely heat shielded.

from FB GReddy FRS page... someone asking about the header.... also they said they are working on a turbo kit.... i'm excited to hear more details about that

[oso_25]

I guess its greddy products you will be seeing in my car. Hopefully the header looks clean like the sp elite exhaust

They said not to expect the turbokit until early 2013...

True that. I'd rather listen to my music or my company.

surprisingly greddy priced these at $350 which is less than aFe/Takeda

Im just curious... but why do people delete the sound tube at all ? maybe i dont understand why to do that ---

i can see ill never stop spending money on this car !!

but DO they claim an increase in HP of 5-7 ?? thats more than the RS Elite exhaust or anything else under 1000 dollars .. ?? really -- or is that wishful thinking..

1. Because it is ugly. Deleting it cleans up the engine bay with less clutter.

2. The added sound from an aftermarket intake is far superior to what the "sound generator" is capable of producing.
