$42 for an SRI? Ridiculously cheap. I can't imagine the airflow or fit being optimum though.

You seem like you know what your talking about im just new to this forum but had the IS250 for a while now. Will I have any warning lights come on, or will the ECU be thinking nothing is wrong?

Yeah, I got that intake more than a year ago. The fitment was the only complain I really had about it. Quality was a bit cheap too though. When installed, the points where they bend the tube wasn't right and the engine cover doesn't fit on properly anymore. You also need a longer breather tube and new clamps for the tube. Just save up for something better. I have a Takeda now.
