I did actually compare the 2016 and 2017 stock intake tubes. They are different in length (due to the new manifold?). Also confirmed with Perrin that it's different and they are developing a new one, but like you said it fit just fine.

Must be because of the different airbox design, since those take a different air filter now. Good to know they (Perrin) are making a new one. I didn't think anything of it until I saw your post

They are Rota Titans, 17x9 +42. Basically a Weds TC105N knock-off.

they had to ship them to the tire shop, they will be on the car tomorrow evening. I will make sure to follow up. Initially I was undecided between the Continental Extremecontact DW and the Potenzas but the shop told me the Continental were getting discontinued thus leaving me with one option.

Never really posted the progress of my car on the forums, but I have the standard bolt on parts for almost everything on the car (intake/exhaust/headers/etc)

Nice! Hyper black right? They look great on blue. I almost got hyper black but went with straight black on my silver.

Small and easy upgrade, but changed to clear side markers.

Changed transmission and rear diff oil to motul 300 after 1500miles. Shifting difference is amazing, and cleared out all the metal bits.

After few days of driving I would say they are quiter but not by substantial margin. The grip however is night and day from the stock michelin tire. For $125 each plus a $100 rebate if you buy a set of 4 they are a pretty good deal.
