Glad to see that you got the updated design intake (clips, no fitment issues). It does sound great, however, if you do headers+exhaust, you'll never hear your intake again

Your F looks great! What differences have you noticed w the new intake (noise, performance & mileage)? Also is the Takeda CARB certified? Thanks, Shot

No aftermarket intake is CARB certified.

Nice..mods are always good ...I know you had a separate thread for your rims but I was wondering if you plan to add spacers or not? I think that will really set this bad boy off so to speak.

i have no room for spacers. If i rolled the rear fender i could get another 1/4" out of them with spacers but i dont feel like doing that, i like the way it looks now. I would rather tuck my tire then be above it and flush with the fender. Im not into the hella flush movement, i like my tires tucking

same for the front. I am tucking the front tire slightly and i can make a full u-turn till i cant turn my steering wheel anymore and still get NO scraping......so im good the way it is i love it.

I'm a fan of being flush. But I think your car looks good with the slight tuck.

Been looking online, but can't seem to find it. What was the price on the exhaust?
