So here's the nudies of the intakes... Definitely feel the difference in the low end being smoother. Stronger pulls, more aggressive tone (sort of like the g35/37 exhaust kinda...) and looks cool as hell!
I am pleased with them.
The install took about 4 hours... a little long but was having trouble fitting the intake brackets over the engine area (after 30 min I just decided to re-use the old intakes brackets and my friend and I just shook our head thinking why not sooner) and the bumper was being a bit fickle. All in all it was fairly easy. Dremel was a lot easier than expected. Probably the easiest part of the job! Followed the guide for the MAF part and left them in the old intakes until I was done fitting and installation.
