Been on the fence about getting this myself. Did you get a good deal? Seems to be the most expensive intake out there other than the CF one I found for 1500 bucks. Yah no thanks..LOL.

can you do a dyno because it's been busted by bms on the N20 engine it doesn't need any intake, the stock one is not restrictive at all ... I want to get it but i'm a little hesitated I don't want to spend over $300 for just sound

Can you PM me the eBay store you got it from? I found one selling it for 290 something which is the cheapest I found it for. Curious if you ordered yours from same guy.

It is pretty much all about the sound. Even if you got a 9hp increase you won't feel that at all, but even if it added say 3-5hp, you do that with multiple items then you make a difference. Plus it looks better under the hood than the standard box.

I have the bms st.2, dp and AA axle back but I am limited by the fuel here, I always use octane with RON92 to reach RON95 which is 91 in U.S beside I have the electronic wastegate & i'm waiting for the EWG to be released as soon as possible so I could use those extra 3-5 hp from the intake if they really make them because bms made a dyno with ER intake and it lowered by 1 hp

Impressive sound, people are very curious what exhaust is this lol.. actually I got a friend who has afe exhaust and it's nothing compared to the AA note but I don't like the drone that I have in the cabin between 2.5-3 rpm because the axle back & dp are both catless so idk what to do about it

Inside all I saw this metal thing along both sides like the heat shield up the exhaust looked like same material.

Total price was $426 inc shipping to Australia.
I am not going to dyno, just wanna test it with my butt.
I should be able to tell if there's any difference as I used to do a lot of tuning and track days with my old car.
I am really paying it for the turbo noise. Just love it. Lol
