Best Aftermarket Air Intake by Experience

Hey everyone,

I recently spent the better part of 40 hrs researching aftermarket intake options (I'm an engineer I have to do my research.) I'm curious what experiences you've have had with yours. Do you like your choice?

I made video about why I picked the one I ordered:

Re: Best Aftermarket Air Intake by Experience

The entire reason I went the DIY route instead of dropping $400 on an intake, then spent the $450 on KTuner for the power.

$60-80 for woosh and pssshhh noises

$450 (+ $100 phearable tune which is free when you buy ktuner from phearable) for ~215whp and 245ft-lbs torque in my CVT hatch
