AFAIK there is no off the shelf intake for the 06+ GS430. A few guys seem to have some success adapting the Injen/SRT intakes for the previous-gen GS430 but some others also have problems with check engine lights etc.

The only intake I'm aware of that is commercially available for 06+ GS430 is the Blitz SUS Power, which is just a pod at the end of the stock intake tube, rather than a full intake kit.

 

HAHAH true, let me know when you get it !

 

yeah the install did take some time because the instructions were not perfect.. however, i did get it in after 2 hours of just trying to figure out what piece is for what.. i guess it doesnt help to do it in a dim area in the rain.. but i couldnt wait..

result: THIS BABY GROWLS!!! the pickup is amazing and i love it!! best bang for the buck so far imho..

 

does the gs430 06 drop in filter add more noise? or does it sound the same?

 

sounds the same, the sound is because the cone filter elimantes all the baffling. I have been waiting and waiting for a solution. I was looking at the powersport box (factory option) on my porsche and they got sound by basically drilling a bunch of holes in the plastic before the filter to allow it to get some sound. I though about that, but warranty prevented that thought. I need some sound!

 

yeah me 2 I love the fact that lexus are so quiet. But i have that driver's spirit where the sound of my own engine just gets my gears going. haha.
