Default ISF intake same as F-Sport?

Does the ISF have the same intake as F-sport? I got it for my IS350 and the sound is very similar except that you don't get that V8 sound. I'm loving the intake note. Just curious if they share the same intake.

Can somebody snap a pic of the intake? I want to see how similar it is to F-sport intake.

It's not even close to F-sport. IS-F has two stage intake. Damn it sounds so nice.

Something I think many are failing to realize is that F-Sport parts have NOTHING TO DO with the IS-F. There are NO F-Sport parts that come from the IS-F, or that are made for the IS-F.
