Attaches the intake to the existing fittings on the car. JoeZ comes with them already.

Quick Update.....

The handful of back ordered Polished IS350 Intakes (along with other IS model back ordered intakes) are on their way to Carson Toyota / Lexus Parts..

They should have them sometime mid-morning or by Noon time Wednesday.

Which means most of their back orders will ship out tomorrow hopefully.

Blue IS350 Intakes are still "in process" at my anodizer.. I hope to get them back by Thursday night the earliest..
If I do, I will personally make sure Carson has them by Friday morning.

IF for some reason the anodizer misses the Thursday goal and they are ready Friday, then the intakes will get to Carson by Monday..

Will keep you all posted on the Blue progress, of course..

Doing my best to turn this entire batch over in under 5 weeks.. Not bad considering I gave them a 6-8 week lead time...

Thank You Again

Joe Z

No problem at all....

I will know by end of business day, if the Blue Intakes made it out of the "liquid process"

Edit:
Just got the call, they will be out of anodizing Friday afternoon... Carson will have them by Monday..

The hole makes the sound regardless of which. The fsport or Joez will give you more power. Not a lot, but some. ~5hp...that is if it ever ships....I've been waiting over a month now for my blue joez pipe. You might be able to get a chrome or black sooner though, not sure.

^^Yours should have left by now....

Maybe I should not make the Blue a Limited Edtion anymore... Just standard...

I do personally apologize for the extended wait time.
