K&N or F-Sport from Lexus. I ended up getting F-sport.

I see a lot of people want the F-sport. Any particular reason?

Some reasons I can think of:
1. CARB Legal. A lot of members are from California. It won't draw attention from smog inspectors.
2. Even without the Exhaust, The F-sport intake sounds amazing.
3. Easy to clean the filter.
4. Lexus made it.

Search for info on other intakes or wait and read comments about other intakes before you buy.

Yeah that video is exactly how it sounds like. You can hear it inside when you're driving around 3k-4.5k rpm. When I got my exhaust I can't hear it anymore. Still a great mod since you can reuse the filter.

I have an HKS exhaust on mine. I wonder how the intake is gonna sound with that combo.
