Yeah dont care much for the filters shown in the pic. But these intakes seem to be a happy medium. Not too short (Fujita), not too long (Injen) and they don't reuse factory rubber intake hose (PWT).

Looks like they are all the way at the top, right before the throttle body.


I was waiting for these intakes because for the price I thought they would be much nicer. I thought they might have a better heatsheild than the other intakes. Looks like I will be waiting for an ARC intake now....

Look at the pic... As questioned...There is No MAF plug in the intakes...

Driver Side: You can see the plug staring at you near the filter.

Passenger Side: you can see the MAF Wire curved and tucked in the front of the motor.


Im sure this is a proto picture because the car would go nutz with no MAF sensors... So I wouldnt worry about it.

Why are they expected to be so expensive? Is that typical for everything from Top Secret?
