Default Intake suggestions?

I'm looking forward to putting an intake on my is250. I'm thinking of Takeda or Injen, F-Sport is an option too. I came across this:

any suggestions?

Use the search function as this topic and Takeda short ram intake has been review before. you could also ask questions there so all info about that mod or part can be discussed and searching for answers will be easy.

if you care about being legal in CA then F-sport is your only choice

(though folks have varied results in the inspector caring or not)

So if I were to install anything other than F Sport does that mean my warranties will be void?

Nothing can "void" a new car warranty

The only thing aftermarket parts do is make it so that they don't have to warranty THAT part, nor any problem caused by that part... the rest of the car remains fully covered.

When I said legal, I meant for California emissions/inspection purposes.

Ive had the Fsport and now have the Takeda. Sounds plays a big factor for me so I love the Takeda. K&N is the loudest tho, but not by much
