Default finally got the takeda intake.
hey guys just want to share that i finally got the takeda intake. i know this is a new company that just barely came out not too long ago and i havnt seen anyone on this forum yet that has it(i might be wrong). but damn..i love this intake so much. quality is just as good as fsport injen fujita etc. piping to tell you the truth looks bigger than usual intake pipings. i love the packaging from this company. they even give you a takeda key chain as a gift. looks pretty dope haha. it starts sounding at 2.5 rpm and roars at 3.5 rpm. power wise IMO not more than 3 horse. so i guess the dyno from their web site is a biig fake. but my friend told me if i tuned it i would get about 20 horse from it. i still dont believe it. overall, this intake is well worth the price. its 206.00 at robearracing. but after shipping and tax its still going to be 250.00. ill post pictures and sound if you guys really want to get into it.

Yea post pics.
Sounds clips are hard to tell actual sound; however, if you can do it... go for it.

Thanks!

Would love to see some pics as well. Sound clips would be a bonus. Curious as to what else you have installed on the IS. Is there an exhaust to go with the intake?

Get it tuned? You can't exactly slap Hondata in this thing and have it dyno-tuned at your local speed shop man..it's a nice thought though..
