New Intake

Looks like their online photos.
The qualify of the components look good, look forward to the fit up & also how long it took you & first test drive once fitted.

Mine should be delivered tomorrow. Idk when I'll get a chance to get them installed but I'll post pics of the intakes.

TLDR: It’s a good kit.

-Overall build quality of the main components; housing, coupling, and tube, was very solid and sturdy.
-Accompanying components were decent pieces nothing to doubt
-Fitment of the housings in the engine bay make it quite snug along the edges, if you have prior wiring in the engine bay it’s nothing to worry about though.
-The fitment of the setup is quite precise I’d say the biggest pain point is lining up the tubes with the turbo couplings and housing. The instructions give a general idea but it felt like guess work.
-Personally I had to trim the provided silicon tubes to get a proper fit but I’d say that’s a given.
-Sound wise it sounds like the Injen intakes in sports mode. It’s not a very noticeable difference without the enhanced sound. It does get pretty whoosh sounds during pulls. I have the Velossatech ram intakes so that might be something to consider.

Side note my kit was missing the Clamp #032 but it’s nothing you can’t grab from an auto part store

Are they as loud as injens? Any difference in sound with the caps on or off?

I haven’t heard the injen intakes in person for a good comparison but based on the video I’ve seen of them the Injen it appears to be louder, I’ve been running it with the caps on the past two days though. I’ll try and get some videos this afternoon with both the caps on and off.

I just got the package at my door. Can't wait to get it installed.

Can’t wait for the sound clips! I do like some induction sound, but not the amount K&N/Injens/other open cone intakes make

Any improvement in throttle response? Will wait on the video before I place my order!
 
The 1st thing I noticed is how much bigger these airboxes are compared to the stock airboxes. Size 10 boot for prospective. The filter is in the bubble wrap.

Looks good, I look forward to a review of fitment difficulty & time, test drive review.
