joe z is for the most power gains, and everything else is for sound, or you can just cut a hole in your stock air box to get the sounds of having a CAI

JoeZ
Uses stock cold air duct and filter box, has most performance gains, and I like the sound.

The others for the most part are for sound and the filter component you have to clean yourself. Dealers probably won't change/replace/clean them like you can with the JoeZ or FSport if you want to keep warranty.

Default Deciding on which Intake System to get

Hello CL members!

I am in a bind here about picking an intake for Is350....I have read other post news about particular intake such as F-sport, Joez pipes, Injen and Fujita and read your comments about those. Now for the most part i believe intake system dont really produce hp like they clam, so for me it's mostly on the sound, something nice deep and i guess a little loud (not to much)...But dont get wrong i would like to have some hp! so im looking out for help on making my decision...would appreciate feed back

FSport intake is OE and if installed by Dealership, keeps warranty for any part that could possibly go wrong.
