Default Salvage takeda intake

JPM rear diffuser w/ARK full catback exhaust

Engine bay w/takeda intake modified
Takeda intake modified
JPM front lip spoiler
JPM cf side skirt

Whats going on CL!

A friend of mine gave me his takeda intake that came from his wrecked rc350 after i bought the ARK exhaust from him. The intake was damage from filter through the housing. I asked AEF power if i can purchase just the housing but no luck so i decided to see what other option i got. All i did really was use it just like the other regular intake with no housing out there and it works the same exact way with the housing. I used a regular air filter but will be buying a better filter tomorrow. I didnt know you could actually convert it to a regular short ram intake without the housing so if you have the same issue as i had i hope this helps.

also i will be posting my car with the complete jpm carbon fiber lip kit.

The "housing" you're mentioning is the heat shield. It's not really required to install the intake system but it sure does help keeping hot air from being sucked in
