No. They are off to the side of the plastic fang panels.

See the attached pics. They are blocked from the grille area by a panel.

If you wanted direct airflow, you could open the panels and run a very short tube from the fang vent and into a hole you cut in the panel. I wouldn't direct the airflow directly at the filter because I'd still be worried about spraying water directly on the filter.

Thanks for the sale Nick! I was shocked to see how fast you shipped it to my military APO in Germany! It more than made up for the coilovers.

If anybody wants to order this intake system, Nick here is the guy you want to order from. You can't find it cheaper anywhere else so don't waist your time lookin!

Nice write up OP. Mine have been sitting in the box at the shop since Aug. Waiting on other R&D products from shop before install. Saw the black chrome on a G37 and trying to get a swap from chrome to black. I am still considering modshacks addtional air flow mod but you make some very valid points and will prolly hold off for the time being. Thanks again.

Where do these things draw their aiflow from? The one time I've pulled my front fascia, those 'pockets' on either side where the filters sit seem to be completely enclosed. My sense is the airflow in there is pretty poor and sealed off. Am I wrong? Maybe the gains would really improve with a little ducting into those compartments.

And if anyone is interested in the Modshack mod for the Injen CAI, here is the answer from Modshack and the link.

+1 Rep for doing my dirty work, ZForce. I'll have to look inside the fascia again but it sounds like air just flows in from the inboard sides of each of those 'pockets'. If I remember correctly, there wasn't much grime in those pockets when I pulled the fascia. I'd be reluctant to divert the fang vents that way and suddenly be blasting road grime all over those areas.

Steve, the shop never followed through to email me the graph. I was less than impressed with their operation so I am not trying to go back and see if I can get it from them. If you want, I can draw you a graph this weekend, but honestly it looks exactly like all of the G3 and Injen charts out there. Minimal gains until 7k, where the stock airboxes fall off.

I took the car in for a dyno this morning and saw a +7.3whp gain for a total of 265.4whp. Based on the conditions and type of dyno, I think this is more or less in line with Injen's +15whp claim (on a DynoJet).
So, Steve, since you're an investments guy, maybe I'm confused (not hard to do)...

I'm glancing at the figures and doing some math in my head and thinnking there is somewhere around (broad estimate) a 10% "rise" in WHP off a DynoJet over the reading you got on your dyno run. So, how does that translate to figures being "more or less in line" when the HP gain Injen is printing is a 100% increase in WHP?

Help an old fart out, plz...
