Default Injen or F-Sports Intake???

UPDATE

F-sport officially on sale
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=386655


ok everyone, just had a time during our NorCal mini meet
to actually remove my Injen and install the F-sport intake

the following are the sound clip taken by Mister T
who actually did the Intake swap

F-sport

Injen

IMO, Injen intake sounds deeper and louder than F-sport
but I think I feel a better throttle response (I feel like my car gain some power and responses better) with F-Sport

so I'm still debating whether or not to keep the F-sport or sell it and put back my Injen

hope the sound clip helps and I'm open to any suggestions

Kenny

i have the F-sport and kinda bump now that Sewell has the GB. Well, anyways, the F-sport is loud, but i dont have the Enjen to compare. Why dont you just buy the F-sport and compare it. Then you can decide which one to sell, since the F-sport GB is on, once it over you can sell it for the same price if you decide then you dont like how it sounds.

Just got my F-Sport intake installed today, I must say that I like it better than the Injen. I'll post a vid as soon as my midpipes come in.

like I said..so far..little disappointed..
I was hoping that F-sport would be little louder and deeper than my Injen
but I can't really tell the difference..
I'm gonna drive around more tomorrow, and hopefully we can tell the
difference from the sound clip when Mister T post them for us
