Default Video with audio of Takada intake on IS350 F Sport

Not very good quality, recorded these runs with my phone on a whimm while on my home from work, but should give an idea what it sounds like from in the interior for anyone wondering. Was in S+ during this drive. Had just topped off the tank too and still managed to get home with over 20mpg on the readout despite being hard on the gas several times. In person it's much louder than the phone makes it sound like.

Love it! Is your car an automatic or a manual?

Oh, sorry - I wasn't aware that all 350s came in Automatic as I don't drive manual and don't inquire about them when deciding on a car.

i have just installed takeda intake tonight on my 350f-sport. i was skeptical at first before installation coz i thot low end could be affected but i was wrong! surprisingly, i am happy to report that it does work and the improvement in terms of power started at around 2200rpm. the sound is just as good. the engine revs easier for sure with the intake, the stock air box was very restricted. the improvements are well worth the cost, highly recommended to anyone. the engine breaths much happier now.

No it won't void warranty and the dealer has to prove the problem you may have is directed/caused by the intake directly you'll be fine!

sounds awesome! I'm thinking of getting the takeda or greddy… when you installed it did your traction control and warning light come on?

No it didn't but then again I had someone else install it who does it for a living. Hit up Jay @dynamicturbo.com he has GReddy Intakes in stock for our 3IS! Tell him jason sent you

no it didn't, and never heard of an issue like that. Install is easy and takes only 30 minutes- hour depending on how good you are with your hands under the hood.

It sounds amazing, and 99% the same as on the 250. There's that 1% more bass on the 350 which is awesome. I'm very happy with the Takeda intake, but the orgasmic sound comes at the expense of more gas

Default Which intake is this?

Is this Takeda intake for the 2is or have they actually made one for the 3is?
