You missed the option for Injen and RS Akimoto intake people. But I guess they are rare.

I have SRT intake/ecu. Wouldn't say I'm not happy with it but I wouldn't buy it again.

Injen DOES NOT have an intake for the GS 400. Only the 300/430

That is not 100% true. Injen did have intake for GS400. However, because the gain was very min, they rework the intake and currently GS400 intake is in testing phase. Check out Injen's website frequently. Maybe they will release the intake for GS400 soon.

The weapon R intake and Cold Air box make my car run like ****, but I think it's the GS's that are not mod friendly because an intake is an intake is an inake...people they are all the same.

its cause ur using a crappy filter and the air isn't smooth when it hits the maf... try using a good filter and then you will see better results.

the GS MAF is no different from any other car with a MAF
