So from the dyno results I am seeing an up to 5whp gain from the intake (333-338)? Curious how much more hp you can get with a drop in like blitz/k&n?
My guess is probably none. The intakes on the IS-F and IS350 already flow more than enough for the power the engine makes. Smoothing out the airflow has helped on the IS350 and as we see here it looks to help a tad for the IS-F as well.
anyone know if these system have any problem with warranty as well as the noise level?
and does it come like simple "screw and unscrew" (<--- don't know what this type call) to install or it need some welding ?

I have seen dyno proven results of 5-10+ hp just from a K&N drop in filter which cost about $50.00 in most cases and installs in minutes. whether K&N or another company produces one, remains to be seen...not to mention if it will yield any gains. But to pontificate either way is a little ignorant and premature without actually studying dyno results!
Excellent upgrade and it sounds just amazing! A "real" exhaust upgrade like yours has to include an X-pipe which ofcourse you added and with a good set of mufflers at the end, there is usually zero droning.
