Post Cold Air Intake

Hey guys,
I wanted to know what is the best SOUNDING cold air intake should i get. Since i have a 2010 Lexus IS250 and I know that it is slow. So I am more into the looks and sounds. Any opinions? Thanks.

Sounds good! Do you know how do police knows when or not you have an illegal cold air intake or is it just depends on luck? because i heard some good reviews on the K&N Typhoon Intake, but it's illegal in California.

When you purchase the intake kit you receive a sticker that goes on top of the air box!

Here's the link for the intake system, login and register at Sewell to receive a clublexus discount on everything! http://is.sewellparts.com/accessorie...2009/1793.html

LMS, 2nd choice would be Fsport or Joe-z w/ a cut out on the lower box which is the same thing as f sport. I personally had a joe z with a cut out of the lower box. I have a stock lower box with cut out you can have if you can p/u.

i wouldnt even worry about the police. they arnt gonna suspect you are illegally modded unless they suspect you street race like a the typical cliche of a young male in a civic.
