Only advice is to follow the guide if you never installed an intake before.

other than just follow the DIY, get yourself a good drop-in filter...any brand would be fine, just your preference between names and oiled/dry...

Oh, and make sure you plug the MAF connector in all the way when you are done

It's a joke to install. If you can pump your own gas, you can install an intake haha.

The blue is a nice touch, post pics/comments when you put it in there! (that's what she said )

Yes sorry about that....

Did you order one of the special colors / finishes ??

I'm guessing you did.. Since they should have the basic black in stock right now...

Which finish did you order? So I can give you a time frame...

Best Regards,

Joe Z

everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. /OT

to the OP, i'd keep a tight eye on the 2is classified section. every once in a while, someone will put up a joe z intake pipe for sale.

seeing as to how joe z stands behind his products and is very helpful regarding the products that bear his name, i believe that it's worth every bit the wait.

Default JoeZ Air Intake

Despite the modest horsepower gain numbers, the JoeZ combined with a K&N air filter was noticeable! The rear tires in my 2006 IS 350 now break loose in straight line acceleration when the transmission is in Power mode.
