if i did go CAI, i would have gone with fa20club's. has the same placement as perrin's CAI but connects directly to the throttle body as 1 piece.

K&N panel, nice little upgrade for short money, plus reuseable. If you bought this car and are looking for big HP numbers your going to be spending a lot of cash.

It doesn't name it specifically for the FR-S, you have to look up the model number from K&N and search for that. But the 33-2300 is the one you want.

Went from aFe CAI to TRD CAI and everything improved. Might be my favorite mod I have so far.

Did realize my DRS came with the TRD drop in filter so bought a K&N so I have both now. Also I think the dealer messed up when they sold me the car because the TRD exhaust, spoiler and TRD filer were not listed on the options hmmm ....
