Here are a couple of installed pictures





It includes a genuine K+N air filter, 4.5" MAF adapter and single gradual bend 3" piping for maximum flow and fits perfectly. If you have any questions feel free to reply, PM or call us!

I have the ETS intake. It fits fine with stock piping. No pics right now though. Gains - I'm not sure, but I like the sound it makes.

It does make my idle tough even with a TTP tune - chokes out occasionally, but you may be able to figure that out. I'm sure that's not specific to the ETS intake though.

Tom, does the ETS intake open things up well enough to hear the spool and dv? Also, witht he stalling issues others have addressed, would the intake just add to the stalling problem which a 50/50 bov?

Sounds more like a tuning issue rather then the ETS intake. Are you running a custom tune or base flash. I had the same problem with my Blitz SUS intake, even after a mail-in base flash from Dynoflash. The problem wasn't solved till I got a custom dyno tune.

The ETS intake REQUIRES you to re-scale the MAF. There are no ands, ifs or buts about it. My drivability with it is 1000 times better than with it not scaled. Think, you are now pushing air through a sewer pipe instead of a drinking straw...

The ETS intake opens up and makes your turbo loud as hell spooling as well as the DV.

Any other questions, just ask...

I never said anything about choosing ETS over AMS, HKS, etc. I merely stated my experience with the ETS one.

Different people have different preferences as far as what parts/company to use. My opinion is like an *******, everyone has one. So I'm not going to bother suggesting one over the other...
