R2C intakes are a good choice if you don't want to remove the bumper.

Congrats on the car! Exhaust is very much a personal preference since everyone has a different opinion of what sounds good. What are your plans with the car? If you plan on going forced induction down the road, then I would plan for the proper size exhaust now so you don't have to do it again.

As far as intakes, we usually recommend the Injen intakes as we have found that they perform extremely well. And if you don't feel like ripping the front bumper off, you're more than welcome to drive up and we'll do it for you.

KandN makes a CAI for the 370?

I was thinking the same thing about K&N!

Worth the drive to RAD. Great people there

LOL. They can call that a CAI as much as they want but its not. A CAI is a intake the positions its filters outside the engine bay not blocks the heat with some plastic.

Hence my acronym HAI.

I see what you did there

Believe it or not when it is 81 outside my stock air inlet temp is 84. How would that change with the stillen gen 3 compared to jwt or k and n? Aldo we have coolant hoses hooked up to the throttle body which increases the air temp.

It would change because you would know be sucking in air heat soaked from the engine. You have drop in filters that are sealed int a plastic housing which is why you probably see those temps.
