2.5 Intake Experience

[fenderpicks]

Just bored, so i thought i'd make a thread about 2.5's intakes =)

Well i personally own a K&N and it's proven to give 6Hp, before i install my exhaust i can hear noticeable sound coming from the intake but now not so much, but i guess it's only normal... well anyways just wanted to see some feedbacks of what you guys have on ur intake system.

Pretty much intake are all the same right...? Just a tube and a filter?

So i was browsing around on takeda that their intake adds 9hp, and injen sp got a intake for the 2.5 as well... Anyone here owns one of these babies?

I have the fugita and i love it. My car sounds beast with the exhaust .

when you say that "it's proven to give 6HP", where is that info from? manufacturers will often give out the numbers that they have charts to show, but in reality i understand that intakes don't give much extra actual hp. i'm waiting on racingline to come out with theirs

do you know when racingline comes out with them?

i got a 2.5 with an injen intake and nismo exhaust, sounds so beast! i love it! hoping to get headers soon and feel more beastly.

I have the Takeda, sounds more throaty than the OEM. As far as HP, it might add a couple but only way to tell is to dyno it.

Honestly, putting an intake on a 2.5 is pretty much only giving you sound. I've got the K&N and it sounds beasty but i dont think it added any power. It feels faster because of the sound the intake gives off and of course because my leadfoot got a whole lot heavier , but theres never going to be a day/night difference on a 2.5
Just my two cents

after the exhaust is on my car.. i dont hear anything from my K&N intake

Takeda on mine, I'm getting better MPG with it (most likely because I don't use as much gas since I listen for the sound to tell me when I'm accelerating too quickly from red lights).

Doubt it gives anything noticeable in horse power; but I don't care cause it sounds cool.
