Hey everyone I just picked up my IS350 satuday morning and I had them put on the F-sport Exhaust and now I'm thinking about getting the F-SPort Intake put in also, from people that have it what do they think?
Sounds amazing when i'm at 3700rpm or higher. otherwise all I hear is my F-Sport exhaust. Its a good combination in my opinion, but I'm just one person so you'll have to hear from others. There's no real performance gain, (applies to most intakes), they just sound great. If your still interested in them, Sewell has a good discount on F-Sport parts at the moment. Moderators might move this thread to the Performance section.. just fyi
Btw has Joe Z stopped offering his intake? Its cheaper and essentially the same thing, how come everyone is going F sport route?
The F-Sport is CARB certified (for all us californians ...), its OEM (so it carries your factory Warranty), and it comes with a Hi-flow intake box (the lower portion)
Other than that ... they are basically the same...
FYI, if you have the JoeZ tube and want the extra hole like the fsport has. Sewell is selling just the bottom part of the intake. So you dont have to pay for the tube which you basically already have.

yeah its they hole in the box that make the big difference.
I like the F-sport exhaust and I love the way it sounds from like 2,000-3500 RPM's and it is kinda loud but after that I don't feel like it increases with sound or anything, so I think that might be where the intake comes into play and keeps the sound up?

Yup, and that's it's one actual advantage for 1 outta 50 states.

Only if you pay a dealer to install it (which is insane given how easy it is)
And what exactly are you expecting to need warrantied on a plastic box with no moving parts?

It comes with a louder intake box. There's no evidence whatsoever it adds any "flow" to your engine however since it doesn't perform or dyno any better than a Joe Z intake.
The -stock- intake already provides more airflow than the engine is capable of using.
Just installed the F-Sport Intake yesterday and I love it.. Picked mine up brand new for a little less than $275. They are on ebay for $265 shipped if you know where to look.
