Question Injen intake vs. K&N intake
Hi Lexus Club,
I would like to get an intake for my car and I don't know which one to choose between Injen and the K&N since I didn't try either.
Could you please help and thanks for your time

I think the K&N does but I'm not sure. Why would you choose the Injen ?

Both are good brand, but it's up to you. For me I have AFE intake. Intake with no heat shield will make you lose power

How do you like the AFE in terms of power and sound ?

I love them. It pull harder after 4500 RPM. I also have custom midepipe and Tanabe exhaust. I used this plastic foam to cover top, and bottom of filter to block out heat.
