I saw someone sell there Takeda for 125.00 to another member which is the same price as the Cobb Tubes so... I cut my stock box to fit the Takeda Tubing and bought some AFE Pro Dry S drop ins. I think it does better then the SRI in the low end and mid range with this setup. Air Intake temps now stay between 5-10 over ambient.

I do however miss the growl that the Takeda's produced.

You have an interesting set-up. I like the ingenuity to turn around the Takeda intake. I think I'll just stick with the Cobb's so I don't have to do any cutting.

Why did you choose AFE over K&N? Just curious.

Where were you able to order the AFE's from and do you have the part number? Cant seem to find anywhere that has them and I dont see them on the AFE website. Thanks!

31-10173 aFe Pro-Dry S Air Filters $48.95. You will need two so a total of $97.90.

I picked them up from: AutoAnything.com

Just ordered a pair for my car. Do you remember how long they took to arrive after ordering from AutoAnything by any chance? Also, does the car feel any stronger with the solid PMAF pipes and the AFE filters in place vs stock?

Will do! I figured for $110 I cant go wrong. I'll try to post some close-up pics as well, so people can compare to the Cobb tubes.

Uploaded some pictures. Installation was fairly easy, but i had to take the strut bar off. The hoses do not flex, so it was basically impossible to get the tubes on without removing it. I was able to get the driver's side on initially, but the passenger side was impossible to install without the strut bar removed. I also had to cut about 1/2 inch off the tubing (too long - obviously). Engine seems louder - similar when I had the R2Cs installed.
