My installed, use experience - - so-far after ~9 mos, ~1200 mls fitment was/is spot-on, no quality issues, no CF blemishes. Since then, removed/re-installed twice for other maintenance access with no problems or apparent issues [ie cracks, delam, etc].
As noted in reviews, no question ID intake provides a noticeable bump in performance along with a very cool 'induction growl'...even with OE plenum. Also, appreciate design retains 'closed system' air intake similar to OE intent. Only downside thus far, requires a bespoke $90 reusable oiled air filter only available through ID.
From a price standpoint, intake positioned competitively; not the highest or 'cheapest'.
Overall, may take  |
I would agree for the price you won’t get an intake that was made with form following function like the ID intake.
I’ve had it on and off for maintenance, no issues. Noise is excellent, looking forward to pairing with ID plenum with oversides trumpets.
