Default Need Help with Cold Air Choice for my 07 lexus is 250 awd

I was wondering if anybody can help me with choosing a cold air intake. I was looking at the fujita intake but was not to sure if I bought it would I lose any of my warranty on my car, or dose it cause problems in the future?

there arent any TRUE cold air intakes.....and it wont void your warranty unless the dealer can prove the part you installed caused the problem.

For what its worth....the fujita intake doesnt even have a heat shield so you'll just be sucking in hot engine air. Youd be better off with an afe or better yet the f-sport. At least they both have some heat shielding.

ebay or the venders on this site offer the F-Sport. VERY easy to install. F-Sport is the Lexus intake. The dealerships out here cover it as part of the car because it's a Lexus part. The F-Sport is the only intake I know of that Lexus sells.

Once a true CAI is developed it will likely show better gains than the current intakes, but the gains will still be minimal. You'll gain maybe 1-4hp on your 250 with the F-Sport, and you'll gain some cool sound as well . Will you FEEL a difference, probably not TBH.
