i installed the Injen intake right before I installed the TANABE exhaust..
and I have to say that you will be surprised to hear what Injen intake can
do to your IS..you won't really notice anything until you hit 3~4K RPM..
i don't really know about the Magnaflow Muffler..but
Injen Intake sounds amazing

Well according to this thread there's not much performance gain so I'd just go ahead and get the intake.

i notice tanabe has sound between 1-3k rpm, and like seoulis250 said injen intake (or intake in general) has sound once we reach 3-4k, so that might be the best combination.

coz i notice my tanabe only has sound up to 3k rpm, higher thaqn that it's all engine.

so thinking of installing intake to put deep sound after 3.5k rpm
