So I'm very delayed on this update, I actually installed the intake on July 16th but have been very lazy to update the blog. But I'm finally getting around to it and will aslo include another update of a subtle mod to the front of the car. I received birthday money from my uncle, which combined with some of my money I was able to purchase a Carbonio Intake from APR as well as a snub mount (which I haven't been able to install due to the lack of a lift) from APR. The install wasn't bad at all because APR gives you a set of instructions. The hardest part had to have been the Carbon fiber lid because the holes dont line up perfectly with the heat shield. But after 30min of being scared of breaking the carbon fiber lid I just said screw it and screwed in one screw at a time and pushed each individual hole to line up, and it worked! The sound is phenomenal I hope to get a sound clip up soon, hopefully I'll be able to convince my little brother to film it. I didn't feel a change in power or torque but it does accelerate smoother. Anyways here are some pictures!

Old airbox needs to get out of there!
