Tip for the Injen intake, is this true?
 

Saw this just now. What do you guys think?

:thumbup:

Is he talking about the snorkel? and that guy spelled injen wrong

I think this intake still sucks. Still one of the ones giving rich issues and bogging from MAF trickery. Only safe route is a tune.

I myself have one and I'm thinking of getting rid of it and getting a different one. What do you think of the Greddy or the Takeda intake?

They're okay. I had the takeda and it bogged a little at low rpm. TRD and drop in filters would be my other choice, Perrin/FA20club if you don't mind pulling the bumper and want a loud intake.

So... does it make a difference or not?

I, too, am waiting for confirmation

I personally never found a problem with my Injen. Don't think it makes a huge difference but doesn't bog and sounds great. I have a tune though so maybe that's why?

Tune is the way to go for sure. This car really takes well to a tune and you can only get so far with bolt ons.

how much are tunes anyway? is it the ecutek thing you buy?

are not all intakes a waste of time with this car? Every dyno I've seem show very very minimal improvement that would likely not be felt when driving.

ive noticed slight power when i got the perrin intake, doesnt it work better with exhaust?

Intakes are a waste. Stick with stock. Jusf get a drop in and the inlet tube to get rid of the noise generator

Happy w/ my AEM. From what Ive gathered the little MAF tune/corrector makes a slight difference.

I got a better tip for you, buy a 90 degree 3.5" aluminum tube and convert it into a cold air intake instead. Made a more noticeable difference to me and sounds more throaty at WOT.

By the way, my Injen intake does NOT have bogging issues and I do not have a tune and I will never have a tune.

Not everyone buys intakes for gains!

The injen intake sounds amazing imo!

but seriously, has anyone tried this yet...

I believe he is talking about the plastic piece at the mouth of the intake. There is a piece inside the bumper cover that is smaller than the metal opening and acts as an unnecessary restriction.

I just ordered an Injen CAI. Stupid question, but when I install it, it is necessary to disconnect the bat for the car to register the new intake?

Yes always a good idea. Let the car idle for about 10 mins as well when re-connected.

You don't have to remove the bumper to get the snorkel. You can just unbolt the top between the headlights then gently peel it back and unbolt the 10mm's holding it in place and then with a bit of contortion pull it out.

Took me about 10 minutes.
