Does anyone have any pictures of this install. And maybe some info on this such as dynos, sound clips or video. I could not find anything! I really like this intake regardless of its price. Thanks guys.

Thanks!! I have seen this pic before. I guess this intake is not that popular. I have searched hi and low, no dynos of other pictures of installs or youtube vids. Hope to see more of this intake in the future when more people buy the 370!

It isn't too common an intake because the G3s seem to be the best ones out there and are like $300-$400 cheaper than these. They don't seem any different than a lot of the SRI we've seen which haven't shown substantial gains.

HKS is like your car is wearing over priced clothing like gucci, parada or armani. The HKS does the same job as intakes 3-400 cheaper. I am one of those picky people, and I am possibly wanting to dress my 370 in HKS parts.

If you want dress up, get the HKS, it says I have money when you pop the hood. If you want 10 more RWHP out of your intake, get a G3...

NOT POINTLESS! It's Gucci, Parada, and Armani for cars!

Does anyone know what kind of material it is made of?? The Injen intake I had on my old rsx type s faded to a dull looking color and I could not polish it. Does anyone know about this issue and if this intake may be prone to this?

usually aluminum. reason you couldnt polish it is they generally are clearcoated to prevent them from looking nasty. you can remove that with chemicals.

pretty sure there is no coating on the stillen G3...

do you happen to know what kind of chem to remove? I think I will call HKS usa and get more details on this intake, I high end company like this with no dynos of any sort and total lack of rich information. This is rediculous.
