Yes, this is another worthless install thread. But you know what, I don't care.

Well, I finally decided to install the intake after having the intake sit for close to a month in the trunk. I wanted to wait till I finally put some good miles on her, but I decided f#&k it.

I had the first Gunmetal one that Joe Z had made on a sample run. Although this is not the original one, it went to another home on the other side of the U.S. All I can say is, I love this intake! It makes the engine more pronounced under regular acceleration. The car definately feels more peppy, but it might be mental, who knows. Not ready to scream it to redline yet.

So far, I love it, the product looks great. Thanks again Joe!

Anyway, onward to the obligatory photos!

what are the differences between the stock tube and joe z tube? is it just the inside of the tube? one has ridges and the other is smooth?

dang... the engine is kinda ugly w/o that cover... hoses running every which way...
