My concern is that those side 'pockets' where the Ingens sit don't have as much airflow access as the Stillen kit gets right in front of the radiator.
I took the front fascia off to replace the horns and those lateral areas seem very isolated from good airflow. This just puts the intake filters in their own isolated little pockets once the fascia is back on. I'd be surprised if the gains for the Ingen come anywhere close to the Stillen GenIII. |

If it's really a concern, you could always remove the "dividers" and completely open that area up, but then I'd worry about getting the filters wet in rain driving. Your best bet would probably be to cut holes in the dividers and use Steve's (Modshack) technique to divert some more air into that area.

BTW, I was able to get on it a bit today. It feels like there's a little more "pull" as you approach 7,500 RPM.
But by far the biggest noticeable difference these make is the sound. The mid-range growl sounds awesome and overall the engine/exhaust is a bit louder. We'll see on Saturday if these things actually make any power!

Yes, it's a dry filter.

+1 Steve!
Good writeup, and great pics and vid! giving the ecu time to adjust is a good idea, I'm still allowing mine time to adjust. I was getting around 17.4 mpg before the Takedas, and immidiately after I was getting around 14.2 mpg. I am up to 15.2 mpg at this time. I will wait till I get the FI catback and do a before and after dyno then. I really feel like the ecu needs more time to lean out.
