Default Joe-Z Intake!!!

Installed the Joe-Z intake last night. The F for sure sounds a little more throaty. I went with the blue because the F is really the only time you can pull it off. Install was easy and hopefully done correctly https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ima...s/rolleyes.gif
Thanks Joe-Z! Has anyone combined the intake with a muffler delete? I am curious what it sounds like.

Looks good, I went with black for a stealth appearance. As for the muffler delete, I combined the JoeZ intake and JoeZ exhaust and am very happy with the sound and performance.

Looks great and sounds great. The blue one is very appropriate for the F!!

Questions:
1. Where can I purchase this and for how much?
2. Is installation easy?
3. What kind of improvements could I expect (i.e. sound, hp, response, mpg, etc.)?

Thanks,
Jim

1. Purchase it from L-tuned:
http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=3087
2. Cost $140 + Shipping.
Install is super easy and only required a few tools.
3. There is a thread on it's benefits around here somewhere.

u can contact Clark at VIP Auto Salon (very reputable and great customer service), and as mdsbrain mentioned earlier, l-tunedparts.com (Carson Toyota). $140 seems about right from when I purchased mine last year.

I think I have found my first mod. I've been searching like a mad woman through all the modification and I think JoeZ is the way to go in terms of exhaust and intake. Looks good.

JoeZ, there is a field on the website for a discount code. Can I get in on that?

^^Where in Texas are you from?

I would definitely visit Clark at VIP (great guy, always stands by his products and always available) or l-tunedparts.com for all your F parts

To the OP, glad you're enjoying the intake, now time for more mods

I'm in Austin, BigMike.

And I'm on the L-tunedparts.com website. That's where I'm seeing the input field for a discount code. I already planned on buying the intake system, but if I can get it slighty cheaper, I'll do it.
