I knew it would be worth buying this just so when i popped the hood i could see the look on someones face! all i can say is that NO picture can do this justice. i didn't even want to install it. i wanted to keep it on my desk. its the highest quality carbon fiber example i have ever seen. My VeilSide exhaust is so loud i can not hear the intake very well. It does make a "wistle" sort of sound upon take off. the intake box that is behind the front bumper is all carbon and its just sad that you can not really see it. Yes its alot of money..but i like exclusive items like this.

Take care,
John

 

It really is an awesome intake.

 

ultimateone - I want to see yours! Where are you in Boston ?

 

John,

Noticable difference in power? Have you dyno'd it yet? I have mine on order but will be another month until delivery.

 

i have not dyno'd it yet. i will. i wish i could afford to dyno after each modification. It feels fast at higher RPM's
There is a noticable change...not TOO much..but something is different. i would like to have installed it before the exhaust to see what just the intake feels like. I think www.intensepower.com has them sitting there in stock ready to ship out.

just a recomendation:
since this requires you to take off your bumper...don't install it until you purchase everything your going to install that requires removing the bumper...i know i wish i had done that.

 

Does it use the stock top intake tube?

 

So all of you guys that have this - you like it / happy with it ? I know its not cheap. Was going to get one a while back when they first came out but decided to wait on it.

Also, does the scoop clear the bumper mounted front plate for sure ?

 

yep clears the bumper - I have a front plate on my car

Dyno will be this week for sure, witht he inake being the only mod done since my alst dyno. Hopefulyl we'll bring the grounding kit with us too and play around with various ground points on the dyno as well (time permitting)

Im in Tewksbury just North of Boston....maybe if theres one more meet before all hell breaks loose (weather wise) I can show you...but I do work 2 jobs and sometimes weekends

 

Make sure they've got a good fan to use while you''re on the dyno.

 

failsafe,
Do you need help to remove your bumper? I can probably lend a hand since I also want to check out that intake...

 

Ultimateone: let me know if you find time.
I'm south on 495 but I can make the ride up if the weather is decent.

 

Honestly, I don't think even the fan will help on the dyno, but the shop we use has a HUGE one.

Hopefully will get over there this weekend for a test.

Next up will be the ground wires and crank pulley - gets a bit expensive at $100 a pop to go for each individual mod

What do you all suggest for the dyno? Should be do the intake as a standalone mod, or consolidate it with either the pulley and/or ground wires. If done as astandalone, we would probably then do the pulley and ground wires together as one dynoed mod

Let us know before I book the appt

thanks

 

Not sure yet. I'll let you know when it arrives......in a month .

Adam- Do the intake only if possible. Be nice to see the numbers on the intake as a stand alone.

 

I'd like to see the numbers as well with just the intake. I know they make a great intake for the E46 m3. It looks sooooo amazing, the cf quality is outstanding.

 

I want to see the Gruppe M Dyno, I havn't seen one yet.

 

I may dyno here in a few min...the shop down the street from mine is throwing a dyno day. its $50 instead of $100.

i have the veilside titanium exhaust and gruppe M intake so mine will not be exactly what we are looking for ..but it will be better than nothing...

i will post the results...

John - you would be "da man" actually if you could do that - I was thinking about the Veilside for my own car

 

Any application for G35 Coupe?

 

specifically, no, though this one might work - have not tried it myself yet on a G Coupe
