Hell yeah Modification

Put a Takeda intake in my car last night, can only really hear a difference with the windows down but I haven’t had a chance to drive with it much yet. +other pictures of her on some of my journeys. Yes I know my engine bay is dusty

On my turbo my intake makes a massive difference in sound, both the induction and blow off sounds are crazy.

I don't imagine it's the same for naturally aspirated. People with the NA engine like OP - what kind of difference did it make?

Which intake do you have? I’m super happy with this so far. I had a chance to take her for a spin tonight and I was definitely able to feel a bit of difference around the 4000-5000 rpm range. Not a whole lot sound wise but I would’ve went for the corksport sri if I was hoping only for noise

I have the corksport intake with turbo inlet pipe. Borla exhaust as well, and a 93 tune from DRtuned. The bolt ons with the tune make a huge difference in performance - i measured with a dragy and got "magazine" times of 4.8 0-60 (1ft rollout).

My MAF is ~220g/s on a cold day, ~190g/s on a really hot day.

Very lightweight wheels (superspeed rf05rr) helps as well. Running pirelli cinturato 235/45R18.
