Takeda Intake Installed!

JB1 · 10-11-2009, 08:02 PM

I think they at least need to add heatshields. I installed a scangauge last Friday and notice that I'm running IAT of about 25 degrees over ambient with the Takedas. Note that this is when going over 45 mph. In traffic IAT are at over 100. (at an
ambient temp of about 50). So I'll try the Modshack fang intake mod and if that doesn't
work I'll replace the Takedas with Stillen G3s. (I feel I should have done this
in the first place, but that's what I get for being cheap)

Yep, I am going Stillen or Injen in the spring unless Takeda comes out with some excellent update.

X3 for Gen3, Don't like injen because of the washer fluid can replacement. I think the Gen 3 + fang intake is the way to go.

The washer fluid is not a huge deal to me, as if I go Injen I will probably just remove the washer fluid anyways.

Living in Chicago, this is not an option, I need washer fluid :-)

True, and it seems the Stillen have proven gains above that of Injen and after Takeda I am buying the best HP (unless it is not reliable).
