Default injen intake

well folks i got my injen intake, and its installed, but i just havent gotten around to taking pics. i have off tomorrow so ill take some pics and post it. i think it looks nice with the polished tube and all. it sounds cool too. anyways it was an easy install, it took me about 30 minutes, and im not the best with that stuff. ill take pics tomorrow

Kevin

The install everything fit just how it was supposed to fit. Good product. if you are contemplating buying an intake. this one fits well. The HP gain is minimal, and i have yet to see it, cause i havent put it on the dyno. That will be soon when i get my AFC hooked up.

How many additional hp is expected, when an injen intake is installed in a SC400 (94) assuming that there is no engine mods?
Worth the money?

that depends on the car and the condition of it. anywhere from 5-15 hp, sometimes more but very unlikely. can anyone back me up here? im just estimating. ive had intakes on all my cars and all my friends cars.

I see from the pic that the intake uses the stock MAF sensor(the whole metal part).

I remember from a Solara, the whole intake gets replaced & the only thing u have to put on that injen intake is the black part of the sensor.

The Intake looks really tight, but it kinda throws off the shine, because, you have a shiny chrome intake finish, then the stock MAF adapter, then the shiny red filter, compared to other injen intakes.

Looks very clean! Now all you need is an air box around that filter

i'm telling you...
if injen comes out w/ an intake for the 92-97 sc400 w/ integrated maf section (i'll make my own cold air box for it), i'll be one of the first to buy it... sigh.

looks good lexcoupe!
