IS250 intake pipe swap with 3rd gen
Since the 2nd and 3rd gen IS uses the same engine (i.e. 4GR-FSE), I am wondering if their plastic intake pipes are interchangeable. Why you ask?
1) I'm hoping to pay less of a premium for better engine sound
2) the 3rd gen pipe looks straighter and seem to not have those ribs (over look is nicer too!)
3) Instead of ripped out the resonator box from the pipe in a 2nd gen and hunt for something to plug that hole, the 3rd gen came stock without one
So, anyone has connection to get cheap OEM parts?

Thanks Nguyen, that means it is a direct bolt on without modifications, that's good to know =)
@Uda880, you are right, sourcing a factory intake will definitely be more expensive than a Joe-Z. But it does open up an option if I do stumble upon one used.
thanks both for your input
