INJEN COLD AIR INTAKE IS200t

Me and you have the same exact car. 2017 IS 200T F-Sport.
Let me know if you got any questions so far man, getting an intake for the car is literally the best ~$250 I've ever dropped.

I drove down to my dealer today, spoke to my salesman, and he brought over a tech that also confirmed this. I live in Texas (Sterling McCall Lexus) and they will not void my warranty for installing an intake. But, the service manager did make very clear to me that if I did do any engine tuning they will void my warranty. Afterwards, my salesman and I went for a little lap around the dealer so he could listen to the BOV.

Trust me, you don't need to touch any of that stuff. Also I don't think BOV's are needed until the turbo gets to be a little bigger. Correct me if I'm wrong someone!
Check my thread tonight for a video!

So I just realized there's a difference between short ram intakes and cold air intakes. I can't seem to find any Injen cold air intakes for my 2017 IS200t, or do they only make the short ram intake? If anyone can link me to the cold air intake, that would be awesome. Thanks

Injen Technology Ram / Cold Air Intake Systems
Guys, although I respect Injen's products and their quality... I was going to purchase the "Injen Short Ram Intake" for my IS 200t F Sport until I read this on the Injen website... "Injen Technology Ram / Cold Air Intake Systems should be removed in wet climate conditions. Failure to do so may cause water to be absorbed into the engine through the Intake System causing serious engine failure. Injen Technology assumes no liability for damages to your engine due to water entering your vehicle's system."
So although I still feel its a great performance product... for me personally, I know I am not going to want to have to reinstall my factory intake every time it rains and I won't want to risk getting water/moisture into my engine either.
That being said, I guess if you have another car you can drive whenever its wet outside then this shouldn't be an issue... or if you're willing to do the swap every time it rains then go for it!
Again... not trying to say anything bad about Injen at all... this is just an important factor I thought everyone should be aware of when considering this upgrade.

Have you guys tried any other performance companies? Like AEM. Been looking at getting the full Injen short ram intake but ran across this online. https://www.aemintakes.com/mobile/pr...?prod=28-20452
It's just an air filter exchange. Has anyone tried it or know of anyone who has?
Or what about AEM's intake system? https://www.aemintakes.com/mobile/pr...x?prod=21-791C
What's the better brand? What do you guys recommend?

I haven't seen any real testing done on the different intake brands and designs. Some may say the stock intake is enough, some may want the turbo sound for the cool factor, some are looking for strictly power gains etc. My personal preference is function, so anything other than the stock paper filter would help the turbo breathe better.
