"Injen Intake
Description: Not a true CAI, since it does not sit inside the fender. But this also means you dont need to cut a hole in the fender. Which may make this a good choice for people unwilling to do that.
Cheapest price: $203.22-$209.20 from http://www.adventon.com"

wtf. listen dinan if you know who they are, have a cai in the same place as the injen. and its just an intake. all of them are +/- 2 hp. the injen is so damn easy to install as all intakes are. its not complicated in the least. do some research on your own.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO CUT ANY H0LES

i have the instructions here and it does not mention cuttin h0les. i just got mine 2 days ago and imma install tomorrow.

injen is not even a TRUE "cold air intake" because it sits in the engine bay.
and its not even gonna be installed in the same place as the stock aribox (place racing does). it goes right next to the engine and there is nothing to cut in there.

PLACE racing makes TRUE cold air intakes and requires CUTTING.

injen still gives u hp gains because it sits on top of open space (right behind radiator) and be GLAD that u didnt get a PLACE racing and that u dont need to make any cuts.

place racing intake sucks because it sits behind the fender and its really low. it can EASILY suck water in durin rainy conditions and when it does, say BYE BYE VQ30DE.

even on the injen instructions it says to REMOVE IT during rainy conditions because even INJEN can suck WATER in (and sits in engine bay), now imagine PLACE RACING.

Injen makes one of best intakes and they products DO give you hp gains. dont worry


EDIT: who ever is gonna say that INJEN requires cuttin gonna be by me.
injen sits right in middle of engine bay, i dont call that the FENDER i call it THE MIDDLE OF ENGINE BAY AND THERE IS NOTHING TO CUT IN MIDDLE OF ENGINE BAY PLACE. place racing goes right in place of the stock airbox and the FENDER is right there and u cut it and put the filter in there.
