Injen Intakes Installed! Pics, Vids, Dyno

I can't wait, either. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is maybe not being able to hear the engine as much. Really, regardless of the gains, I think

I can't wait, either. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is maybe not being able to hear the engine as much. Really, regardless of the gains, I think the sound alone makes this kit worth the price. It absolutely changes everything... the thing sounds amazing.

I can't imagine what it sounds like to others as I accelerate past them... It sounds pretty wicked inside the car, especially with the windows down.

I'm hoping your dyno curve looks a little better than the one they posted up from Injen. It is almost a linear <5 hp increase across the whole powerband until you hit near redline, which is where you see it keep pulling as the stock intake flattens out. Ya, that shows a 15 hp overall increase, but it's a tiny increase over most of the powerband.

Either way, I love the way a good intake sounds

We'll see what happens. I have a feeling that that's how it's going to be... the stock intakes seem to flow very well.

I think in general that intakes are going to provide mostly peak gains because the factory piece is not really a restriction up until the very top of the range.

HFCs and CBE, however, are pretty restrictive, so aftermarket replacements should yield gains throughout the entire range.

I just ordered the R2C intakes, it will be interesting to see what gains we get. I will also dyno before and after.
