It looks like its missing the filter. The engine cover also looks PSed. Look at how many horns he has too.

It says Injen on the red logo, but I'm not sure about the filter inside the heat shield

Default Injen Intake.

Is it real? Looks photoshopped to me. Why would you put a cold air intake in the fender well where dust, rocks, road debris, water, etc. would be present? Doesn't seem practical.

its just like saying why ppl get aem cold air intakes on their civics where it runs right infront of the pass. front wheel...ppl think they'll get substantial gains from having cold air vs. hot air, the only real benefits is if ur FI.

No way, F/I or N/A if you are sucking in hot air its going to make a big affect.

I went from a regular cone filter on my G/F VR6 jetta to a cold air intake... made very noticable difference. Specialy in this hot FL heat.
