Default Update - Exhaust and Intake installed

Very happy with the turnout. Wanted something simple and this custom axle back setup produces a nice deep growl which is what I was looking for compared to the quite stock sound..what a difference! Will post a video soon

It noticeably gives me alittle more "umph", and it sounds amazing...definitely worth it thanks for the vouch man.

I have the Takeda intake as well with a custom Magnaflow axle back on my IS and sounds very similar. Deep and burly but not over the top.

Nice sound. I'll be getting a Takeda intake for mine next week.

Next week is here and I just ordered one. There is a new part number, TR-2015B-1R (Black tube), available as our 2015 RC 350 now shows up on the Afe Power website.

Default Takeda TR-2015B-1R (Black tube) Installed - Video coming soon

Here is a picture of my Takeda TR-2015B-1R (Black tube) installed. It sounds much more aggressive over stock when you put your foot to the metal, and I like it.
