Injen comes out in a month...I'd wait. I'm not a fan of drop-ins. I prefer the tube filters more than the flat filters that are in air boxes.

I'm on a 4 year lease so I doubt I would mess with something that costs much. Rims? Maybe. I would love to make the exhaust a little louder, love the way it sounds right now but would like a little more noise. Other than that I love the car as it is.

For you, not for me. My last car I paid cash for and I did not have a good experience when I tried to sell it private party. I like to keep my car for a good period of time and then get a new 1. No more financing for me. Either of you 2 rent an apartment?

no. But its cheaper to do 2 2 year leases rather then doing a four. (im almost sure) 4 year leases is nuts IMO. You have to watch out for scratches, rashes on rims etc for four years thats nuts. I dk 4 year lease aint for me.

Seems like any intake on the VHR wouldn't yield any real power gain... It will dress up your engine bay, sound better, and allow you to recharge the filter but thats all. Since we have 2 intakes the draw through each filter is not restrictive at all.

But what about this.... Say you get a intake and have your ECU flashed or get a TurboX piggyback and tune the car can we see a gain from the intake alone? Not that I would do just that I would have all my NA mods done before a tune...

I gained 9whp from putting a intake on my car.

Not sure.. but ive talked to people on the website that actually took out there fugita and put back in there stocks, and say stocks are better.

majority of people are from so cal, u guys should meet up and run it stock intake vs fugita just to solve this shyt already
