Default Takeda Intake

Just installed a Takeda Intake an had a local shop here install some magnaflow exhaust and it woke the car up perfectly. I didn't want anything that would take away from the car. It won't wake the neighbors but it sounds like you're driving a sports car now.

Looks great! Care to please post a video inside and outside?

I'm considering a similar setup as I don't want to wake the neighbors but need that sporty note, especially during spirited driving.

Sounds nice and subtle on the inside! Definitely not too aggressive, but sporty. Nicely done.

Nice! I recently installed the same intake on mine. What are the specs on your magnaflow setup? Exhaust will be my next upgrade.

I went to a local muffler shop here and had them install a magnaflow axleback I don't know what the specs are. I started to get a flowmaster but I wanted something that would be mellow when I wasn't on the gas.
