You already went crazy and bought the most expensive intake, minus the Blitz Fleshlight.

After initial install, I already felt an instant improvement. Now that the ECU has had about a week of "learning," it's pulling and growling even better throughout the rev range. Hope it's not a placebo effect when I say the motor has gotten healthier.

Glad you are liking it! It will be interesting to see what the dyno says.

Andrew... If you're willing to go to Modified by KC ASAP aka before someone else does to get a run on your stock intake vs the trd I'll pay for the pulls. If you're willing to hit me up on fb and I'll speak with chad over there to see if he's willing to do it.

@switchlanez

I'd do a dyno if I had the convenience of free time. And honestly man, I don't feel motivated to hunt for numbers since my butt dyno got everything it hoped for. I know that's not what you want to hear lol but others said they're gonna do the dyno

so I'm waiting like you but more out of passing curiosity.

roddy · 04-14-2013, 05:56 AM

I installed mine last night. I was only able to take the car for a short run up the road and back, so it is too early for the butt dyno to pass judgement yet. The car sounds more natural without the sound generator, and there seems to be more intake honk coming from the front end. I'll burn through this tank of 91 octane (not my usual 94) and see what I think. Sorry guys, no dyno numbers coming from this direction either...car is my DD and the closest dyno is 2 hours away.

iketiak · 04-14-2013, 06:03 AM

Just installed it yesterday, and like everyone said it does feel a lot more responsive. The engine also sounds more natural, hopefully we can see some dynos on it to see the actual numbers.

Jeff86 · 04-14-2013, 09:24 AM

How about some pics of it installed

efactor84 · 04-14-2013, 05:50 PM

How about less talk, more dyno results.

tripjammer · 04-15-2013, 11:30 AM

A dyno is coming from here folks, just waiting for mine TRD intake to come in.

tripjammer · 04-15-2013, 12:30 PM

Some good and bad news. The place were i ordered my TRD intake got the wrong ones. So I won't be able to dyno it this coming Saturday. I will be able to get a baseline dyno this Saturday and then will go back to dyno after I get the TRD intake next week. I know it sucks but what can you do?

I will show y'all the following:
A baseline stock 93 octane dyno
A baseline stock 93 octane ecutek dyno
A baseline TRD/93 octane dyno
A baseline TRD/93 octane ecutek dyno.

I will do this right for y'all. Hopefully somebody will do this before me.

Lets just hope weather conditions are similar on both days you dyno.

Where is everyone buying from? I asked the local dealership and it's almost $100 more compared to ebay sellers.
