Looks really dumb. Probably no actual hp increase.

I'm gonna say that, hey its your car and if your happy I'm happy for you. Almost spending a grand on an intake is too much for me. I'd rather buy some bad ass tires. Some Michelin 4s or Michelin sport cup. IMO. looks different though.

Looks like 2 more screws to remove if you need to do anything.

Looks like more the show car crowd that has to have entire engine bay CF. For that price they should have some real dyno performance benefits but that's doubtful. Plus it still has the part for the stupid sound tube.

Hah, just noticed that. So dumb to keep that part and cap it off. Fuck the noise generator bullshit.

The large top piece appears to be more of a cover panel rather than an induction box. Pity.
