R2C Intake Installed!

I installed my first instake system. Got the R2C and it was easy to install even though the directions suck. I have to say that the drone I had after I installed my Magnaflow exhaust is gone, not sure if it's because I reset the ECU or because the care is breathing better with the new intakes. In any event, love the R2C's and very proud of myself for doing it myself! Never done anything like that before so a big deal for me!

Mine are actually polished chrome, my camera just sucks! I drove from PA to Yankee stadium and back today, the thing hummed beautifully, no issues at all, knock on wood.

Did you have to adjust the air/fuel ratio or just reset the ecu and let it adjust itself?

Will this void your warranty? Would you need to re-install stock, if you have an issue or take in for service?

^ as long as it is not directly related to the issue at hand, no it will not void the warranty. some ppl keep the stock intake just in case they wanna take it to the dealer and they dont want any hassle, so they will change it back to OEM. its your call.

I have Berk HFC and when I installed the R2C intake it was actually quite a bit louder up front and had some pretty harsh rasp when you got on it. With my Invidia(Q300) and I'm sure with any exhaust it will mellow it out quite a bit. I'm very happy with the result and mileage jumped slightly too!! One of the few setups I can safely say I have ZERO rasp with HFC
