Congrats on the new car!!! I would say Keep the kn filter..and spend your money on something else like headers than waste on injen intake. Our Stock airbox is pretty effective.

I suggest getting the new injen evolution intake...........so you can let us know how it performs compared to stock! dyno numbers would be appreciated

Dude! Thanks for the feedback! I made the spats and the small side skirt/mud guards too. I will try and get dimensions posted, not sure exactly how. Mine are prototype, if I made another pair, I would change them slightly. My curved part that goes aginst the bumber, doesn't match perfect. Im happy with how they turned out though.

Maybe I can scan them; they are smaller than a standard sheet of paper. Thanks again!

Thanks man! I was considering that because I read a lot on the forum that the oem air box isnt very restrictive at all, You have any suggestions on headers and keep in mind I plan on using the OFT tune either stage 1 or 2.

I dont even had my heart set on a specific model I just know I wanted Injen so I will look into any reviews I can on that. Assuming from your comment its fairly new with not much testing yet..

Yea it was released a few weeks ago? The new injen intake's air box is double in size and looks pretty badass though. They're advertising a 15hp increase but I'm skeptical even with a tune and proper maf scaling.

The combination of the v2 Rocket Bunny bumper cover and Victory Function fender is unique... not sure if I've seen that combo.

I hadn't thought about this idea until now... you should consider cutting a sheet of aluminum or stainless steel to size and riveting it to the OEM front beam brace.

It would be unique as well as bring some bling or eye-candy to your front clip. Could also powder coat it gloss black...

just an idea...

Good for you. I park that way too unless the carpark is full. When the carpark owners make the spaces wider I will park "correctly".

Staying on topic - I gave her a thorough washing and minor detailing the other day, and added some acoustic sound deadening material to the trunk to help cut down on the in-cabin volume of my exhaust; surprisingly, it does a fairly good job of cutting out much of the frequencies that account for drone, so I'm happy with that purchase.
See that rubber cover at the lower front corner of the rear wheel arch. You can see daylight past it from inside the car. I sealed around it with silicone rubber to cut tire noise (which it did) but the main, (and unexpected) effect was to reduce exhaust noise, even though it's a long way from the exhaust. Leave a small hole at the lowest point for water drainage.
