Very interested in what you discover. Please keep me posted. I'm all for making the car sound better.

That would be a perfect upgrade to compliment the intake, and would give the vehicle a true BOV sound.

Just a heads up, JM Auto Racing is currently offering this intake at a great introductory price in the vendors section.

Depending on the dealer, I've seen cost at 50% below retail. Some of the bigger retailers can get 55% below dealer. If retail is $365 and he gets a 40-50% discount his cost could be anywhere from $182 to $219 ... If he just wants to move product then he'll mark them up just to cover costs involved. To get technical with this you'd have to read what Injen's MAP policy is and advertising a price that low.

I called Injen to confirm, and they said JM Auto Racing is not an authorized dealer, nor is it complying with their policies.

Other value: you get to tell people about it.
Go spread your misery elsewhere.

Oh, wait - there's that terrifying intake roar. Of course, it's only impressive to those with the exact same car. The guy next to you in the BMW didn't turn his head.

You're up: dyno results (not provided by the manufacturer)? 1/4 mile speeds? No?
Not being defensive at all.
You are entitled to hold and express your opinions, as I am to hold and express mine.

You say you're accurate.. but your claims are just as unproven as the manufacturer's claims.
At least Injen posted their dyno results. Where is yours to back up your claim? Non-existent.
Whether it's likely to have such gains in reality... is another debate.

Here are some other fun facts :

Fact : you don't have the part, and you haven't tested your claims
Fact : your claim that "it's only impressive to those with the exact same car" is so laughably narrow-minded and instigative.

I don't mind a healthy dose of skepticism, but when someone brings his/her own negativity (resulting from what, I don't know – jealousy? anger? micropenis? ) into a positive thread, I don't mind being the jerk to tell him/her to take it elsewhere.

While we are advertising this product below what it normally sells at, it's an introductory price on a new released item. Pricing won't stay this low.
