Default Injen SP Cold Air intake

Hey I was looking at this intake on vividracing and i was wondering has anyone tried this out before does it really push out 19hp/17 torque? Just want some personal feedback

ive never heard of the "SP" Intake but there is no CAI intake available for the 2IS. You also will not see those type of gains. The intake that gives you the most power is the Fsport or JoeZ and it will only be 5hp.

Yeah, no intake adds anywhere near that sort of power on an ISx50

Thats just a regiular SRI so you wont see those types of gains.

K&N also claims similar gains (11-15hp I think) but again, that wont happen

It's just a SRI that's a little bit longer in piping

Yea don't believe the hype any intake company claims....at most any intake will give you is maybe and a big MAYBE +8 to +10 and that is probably a cold air intake but these are hardly ever true

Shouldnt it not matter if its a 250 or 350?

I know the Fsport intake for example gives ~5hp regardless of engine size

I just installed the Injen intake in my 250 and I like it. It was very easy to install. The sound is good. As for power I cant tell the difference but I am burning more gasoline because I just want to stomp it all the time. You can hear a slight difference at idle but it really purs at around 3000 and up. Its not very loud its a moderate rumble.
Next mod is going to be sway bars, EVO 3 exhaust, and springs and brakes.

best gain is about 6whp on is250 and 4whp on is350 with joez, hence ~5hp
