My experience. Injen/Perrin
 
So I arrived to Cornelius/forest grove late Tuesday night because that is where my parents live, as I drag myself to a spare bed room after a long drive. I noticed my parts had arrived from Perrin/injen sooner than expected. So stoked I make plans with a few buddies and get the install done. Today we started at about 5pm and didn't finish till around 8:30ish-9. First. As I arrived at my buddies place. We install the injen intake and take it around the block. First thing I gotta say is how easy the install was. It took me a total of maybe 20 minutes from getting the oem part out and the new intake in. 2ndly. We took it Around the block and towards the high way to see if we could notice any differences. To me, I didn't notice anything at low ends. But at the highs you can feel a better throttle response and I felt like the motor was a bit more lively. After that run around we being it back and start the exhaust after maybe a 30 min cool down for the car. The exhaust also just as easy to change out. It was the over pipe/front pipe that had given us the most difficulty. The bolts attached to those felt like they were seriously glued on there. It seemed like no matter how much wd40 you used. It wouldn't come off. But after getting it off and installing the full exhaust. I was ecstatic. Now after the install. We fired up the car. We let it idle for a bit before we decided to take it for a spin. But on a cold start. The exhaust was LOUD. It reminded me of the Greddy Evo 3 exhaust clips on you tube. But as it warmed up. It had quiet down. From the 30 min of driving it. I am in love with this exhaust and intake. No drone noise what so ever. Even with a cold start. Inside the cabin, it wasn't loud at all. Over all. I enjoy the fr-s tons more. Video clips and pictures will be coming soon.

I'm running the same setup (w/ some differences). It's awesome to say the least. Glad there's someone else experiencing the combo who enjoys it as much as I do.

Thanks for sharing. I am looking forward to see some clips soon. :)

Man I'm also debating about the Perrin exhaust combo with injen intake. Some sound clips would be good

Chen 10-19-2012 03:17 PM

My buddy uploaded this on my fb the night of w/ an iPhone. I'll take some sound clips later w/ my DSLR and upload them. Not sure if the videos will play w/ privacy reasons. But we'll see.

Edited to most resent post.

def worth it. Just be prepared to put some time to install it. Def. rewarding after you see the finish product.

Also, I noticed. I dont have an idle issue anymore.
