but they are not for the AWD 3.7 model right?

Such a beautiful piece of work... such a sad thing that it's not for the 3.7 :-(

i want to get this on my car. if anyone has installed the intake please give feed back is it alot louder???

Going to order it asap! You do ship to Canada, right?!

i like the intake ,but do you have drilled rotors for 09 tl at your store?

I have this intake, I think you will really like it, Takeda makes a quality product. Here is a link to the video of my car being dyno'd with the intake

Can you feel any difference in performance?

Yeah I was very impressed, you can def feel the torque, it also has a nice growl when you step on it.

Correct.

Takeda thinks this intake may work with the awd. They are looking to send one to an awd owner to confirm fitment. Pm me of your interested in details and my contact at takedas info.

I should have some slotted/drilled and slotted ROTORA rotors in the store in about 2 weeks.

Yes. Just create an account on the web store and add the parts to the cart and you will be able to see shipping costs.

I asked buckvegas for the contact info, I think all it will take is a different coupler.

^ nice... are you going to be the test fitter?

Okay ordered mine yesterday!

Buck you still lovin the intake?

Also are the filters re-usable after cleaning?

Yes I still Love my intake and yes they are reusable.

Ordered my intake last night! Can't wait!

Pretty cool to see it dyno'd. What's up with the Euro tech music? Next time I'll hook you up with a better score.

yeah, the dyno is pretty cool.

Takedas music selection is kind of out there. All their dyno videos have the same euro technoish flavor

Hey Buck,

I just installed my Intake. One thing...in Park are you limited to 5000 RPM? Sounds good though!

^ most 5AT cars are limited in Park... All my Acuras wouldnt go over 5k in Park

Ya I am limited in park.

alright thought it was the intake.

will getting this cause any factory warranty issues?

That's a good question. UPS guy should be dropping mine off today.

HOLY CRAP! This thing is wicked. Really woke the car up plus it sounds unbelievable!

What did you do with the little black vacuum valve attached to the metal tube that gets removed? It's on my 3.7L motor and I believe I can see it in Takeda's directions. But they make no note on what to do with it. I zip tied mine to the strut bar.

Can you post a pic? I don't think I had anything like that on mine.

looks good Melba. I love my intake as well. Overall I am very impressed with the quality of Takeda. They have some big plans for this division of AfE. Next they are going to produce TB spacer for the TL, followed by a possible exhaust.

Hard to see, but if you follow the silver metal tube, you can see there is tab on the bottom. That is where the Vacuum actuator thing clipped on.

Very good to know. After seeing how good the fit and finish of this intake is, I would be first in line for there other products. i still can't believe the sound this intake makes.....

I just left it. It didn't seem to hang down or anything.

BTW, will that throttle body spacer work on the 3.5? Do you notice any difference with it?

I'm not sure if it will fit, contact Josh at Excelerate. He is vendor here who stocks them.

I did the spacer in combination with thermal gaskets for the spacer and intake manifold. I noticed the throttle body and manifold much cooler, and low end was more responsive. It has shown to give about 4-5whp across the entire RPM band.

I asked Josh about the p2r spacer a few weeks ago. He said it won't fit but that are working on one for the 3.5L.

You seem to have all the information Buck, lol...that's good, I'm just going to ask you from now on. Thanx

you guys cant ship to Canada ?:what:

so did someone roger up to putting this on their AWD? I really would like to get one if I can put it on her..
