Install:
Cons:
Stickers on Intakes: The stickers on the intake did not want to stay on when heated up, so I took them off with a little goo gone. (Not a real issue for me because I’m not much a of badge guy, I like the stealth look).
Also the sticker that goes on the heat shield did not stick either, again not a big deal for me.
Pros:
Sound: The sound coming out of the engine now is just intoxicating, can't keep my foot out of the gas now. At WOT the engine has a very nice throaty growl.
Performance: I have had them on for 5 days now and I drive my car daily so the power has definitely gotten better. I have not dyno tested the intake but the car is more responsive and seems to pull harder.
Looks: The chrome piping is very nice, quality is great and I love the AFE pro dry filters. No oil no mess and they flow just as good as the oil style filters.

Here are some pics of the Takeda Intake Installed:
