Newest Takeda SRI driver!
Just had my intake installed this morning, and everyone was right- low end torque seems better. Normal driving car sounds the same, but stomp on the gas and it sounds awesome, love this thing!

Has anyone actually dyno'd their car with this intake? $250 is a lot of money for awsome sounds.

My gas mileage seemed to have gone up , when I drive like I got sense. I think some have a decrease in mileage because its fun to stomp on it. To, me the sound is even worth the money. When a Caddy CTS tried to mess with me at a light, you should have seen the look on his face with he heard that intake! He looked shocked. And yes, I out accelerated that Caddy. it was neck and neck till the Vtec kicked in. At that point, no contest. The guy rolled down the window and ask me what does that thing have under the hood. Priceless

With computer controlled cars, I'm not so sure its that simple anymore. like I said, I saw an increase in my mileage.

I want to get one but i want to get it along with my exhaust. I kinda dont want to put just the intake on. should i wait or go and get it now?
maybe if i do this and then the exhaust later I will have two times instead of one that my power changes so a longer time of not getting bored lol

I know the I run the risk of sounding LAME...but I just installed my intake last night (by myself). This is big for me because I know more about cars conceptually than I do actually working on them. Took me 2 1/2 hours but I love this thing!!! Couldn't be anymore happier!!! Next up...J pipe! :-)

The only PITA thing on the install is getting the cooling line off the back side of the throttle neck - other than that - it's cake.
I'm on an AWD - and I don't really notice much of a power difference - but it SOUNDS more responsive.
The MPG - I do believe it helps with. In a metered 90 miles of driving - 5 or 6 miles of stoplights and the rest x-way, I averaged 29 mpg, which is normally more like 24-25. If this holds true - I think you can expect to get another 30 miles to the tank if you can keep your foot out of it.
