Look's great, I am guessing you had to remove all the plastic trim pieces in order for the intake to fit. Don't you think the trim pieces might act as a heat shield? Nothing significant, but hey it's worth a shot.

Did you zip-tie the controller to the fuse box or does it fit in it?

all covers are off just because I was working on and havent put them back yet. All but one will fit for sure and I will put those back on. Where the air filter is at I dont think it will work unless I trim the plastic piece. I saw the Blitz GS430 they did and the cut a circle in the plastic cover. Will see....

The ECU I havent installed. Its sitting in the box still. I have no clue what wires to tap into. Hoping that David will have some light to shed on this. It was very dark in the garage and the pics dont help out to much. TCU I can see being different from the change of the trans but I hope the ECU and wires are the same. Almost there!!!

Your year GS its meant for this intake so you have no worries. There is also a heat shield that fits your car and not mine. I will have a custom one made up or see if I can alter the one it came with. For the sound its worth it. Nothing like the sound of a V8 with an intake. Most do nothing but that but I like the sound of an 8 when its open. Cant wait to see how the exhaust will sound on this car. The gains they have show for your car are very good for an intake (30 ~ 40hp). You should buy the one David is selling for your car. I will help you install it!
