Thinking about purchasing Burger Motorsports intake for my IS200t. For the people that have purchased one what are your thoughts?

If no heat shield you'll lose hp from hot air from engine.

 

I would look for something like this instead.

 

$140+ just for a cone and mounting bracket? that's crazy

 

not necessarily with a turbo engine. There is a liquid to air intercooler on it. In my old DSM days, removing the air box and putting a cone filter was instant hp. It was a night and day difference even with it exposed in the engine bay. Air is still being forced in to where the filter is located when the car is moving.

 

Has anyone purchased this intake recently?

 

save urself the money and buy a cone filter from autozone. Literally same exact results.

 

I recently installed the burger motosports intake on my 200t and I'm loving the sound of the turbo. And you also feel a little bit of an increase in power.

 

 

Kind of remind me the K&N FIPK for MK3 Supra Turbo (with just the air filter and a MAF sensor adapter).

 

I just installed it today great mod.

 

I noticed the horn is near the filter box, which is good since the previous location was terrible. I'm used to changing horns on every service due to dust accumulating in the horn.

BTW I would recommend you to try the car without the intake filter cover/box, since it could reduce the car performance due to restriciting the air ( adding the box will remove any advantage related to increasing the flow). However the temperature can be addressed with the intercooler since many manufacturers design the cooling system to take more load than required.

 

post a video with a sound clip!

 

I have a BMS RC/IS200t Intake for sale at 145$ plus shipping. If you are interested I am local to the Los Angeles Area, and you can contact me at (310)650-09zeroeight

 

This Burger intake will probably go the way of the Dodo bird now that the Injen intake has been released. If I was Burger Motorsports I would drastically reduce prices in order to clear out all inventory.
