Not sure I’d like to drill my firewall either.

Was reading up on the Armaspsed intake, trying to understand how it's designed and why it's so loud. As the thread above shows, it's basically a open filter intake, hence the loudness. Their air box doesn't seal to the bumper duct, and just leaves a big hole open.
