Loving it so far.
Decided to run with no sound tube, and I prefer it this way. The Airaid intake sounds and performs excellently. My favorite part is when I have to give the throttle a big blip to rev-match a 6th-down-to-4th gear change, it barks quite nicely. And once Im already up past 5Krpm after that downshift, it just makes sense to keep the throttle pinned all the way to the redline, which is where this intake sounds the best, IMO. Since Im already way past the break in point on this engine I can churn it all the way up to the rev limit and thank god for that. This car just isnt fun to drive if you arent giving it 80+%.
For those of you who may be more... responsible than I am, the intake is quiet/normal cruising around under 4Krpms, under 50% engine load.
As far as looks go, even for a prototype its photogenic. Airaid makes their intakes out of OEM-appearing deep black plastics, which is what I love. Id rather not have some polished aluminum piping sticking out like an eye sore in my otherwise black engine bay.
