Would these group buys apply to us Canadian customers? Is the Stillen intake system cold air (does the filter go into the front fender) and does the install require the moving of any under hood parts such as the washer fluid bottle? I have been there before and its hell...LOL Thanks.

I am going to announce the details on this tomorrow. We are going to wait for the beginning of May.

All of our group buys do apply to our Northly neighbors.

We are doing a test this weekend to confirm that it will fit on the 2.5 but as of right now we do not have confirmation.

Kyle, can you post some pictures of the Stillen intake? It seems like no one has seen it.

Thank you.

Ive seen it. Its aesthetic qualities really aren't that great. But it gets the job done for a short ram.

I like the rubber hose look at the opposite end of the cone.

Is that a 3.5 part, or is that the stillen part?

Maybe the production intake will have more aesthetics.

That rubber hose (ribbed) thing is a bad idea for air flow. I think they adapted that to that car since its a 2.5...

Haha that is the production intake. It was offered to me a long time ago, however, I like the look of the Injen much better. Besides, owning 2 intakes is redundant when a turbo is about to go on it anyways. The black piece is the stock flex tube used to create the perfect attachment angle in the stock intake piping. On this application it creates the perfect angle to bolt the intake to the support bolt. I have also heard things about the ribbed plastic piece being there to create an accelerating air flow pattern, but I haven't confirmed that.

Ribbed hoses are used by carmakers to make repairs easier and to baffle the intake sounds. If u look at racecars, turbo kits, CAI all smooth pipes. On my GTO just removing the Ribbed oem pipe and replacing the maf pipe with a slightly larger smooth pipe gave me 7rwhp on a dynojet. Then replacing the airbox with a cone type filter and heatshield was another 11rwhp....Same dyno same day!

Were starting the project around the 20th of this month. I would be willing to part with it for around $200 shipped.

On a muscle car, you might gain that, but neva with a 4 cyl or v6

Damn, $40 more and you get a new one in the box.

I couldn't get in the first Injen GB, so I'm waiting for this one to happen... hopefully Stillen will allow GB of the Injen and the Stillen Intakes because I really want the Injen for aesthetics.
