this extra protection for shipping was most likely not needed, but the peace of mind was worth the cost to me.
I wish the instructions were more detailed, especially around how to take off the HPFP and its side valve cover. I did struggle for a while. Other than that, studs installation is straightforward, and parts are high quality.
Completely changed the car for better, highly recommended!
This intake is pretty easy to install and create a ton of turbo intake noise. It’s awesome to listen to and you can even hear it with the windows up. It definitely increases airflow to the engine and I recommend getting the cold air duct as well if you’re going to go to the trouble of installing this anyway.
