Pic request: Injen ic piping with intake
Does this setup include the lower pipe? The lower pipe is the one you want to watch out for since it necks down quite a bit. We have seen an average of 12hp gain on our dyno by replacing the LICP with our LP2.
It does come with the LICP as we all know that the stock LICP is severely restricted. As far as my battery issue is concerned, the Optima battery terminals are/were opposite than what I needed so I had to buy a set of side terminals and work with my short battery cables. Long story short, I will have to wait until I get back from Iraq to fix it.
unfortunately I don"t have any pics of it but I also have the Injen intake and upicp fitment was great I thought and I felt as if I felt a tad difference in spool time, but that's just the butt dyno.
I and switchin over to the ETS though as far as the upper pipes because I just bought their ic kit and I want the short route pipes

Without getting into a bashing contest, could you elaborate on why you feel the set up sucks if it was already on your car when you bought it? It seems that you have no basis to make that claim comparison-wise.
people are gonna say what they want about products there is nothing wrong with ETS INJEN AMS BR etc. Who cares its your car. he could say i think it sucks because of the name. If they cant support it with facts IN THE POST they say it in then i smell bs. Get what you want and be happy its your car. After all you set a goal to make Lookswise or powerwise. Does not matter how you get there. Many formulas to make power and plenty of body mods. People act like there is one route or one company is better than the other. Its not all about pricing. just because something is cheap does not mean its the worse part nor if its MORE EXPENSIVE with a name on it its made better. Please quit all this FANBOY NONSENSE. the OP asked for pics of the injen setup not i think you should use ams ets etc. SO if you dont have injen setup with pics and information DONT POST period. IF you like ets setup then cool. I have friends on here that use that setup it looks nice and nice products BUT this is a INJEN thread keep it that way.

I have had my Injen kit on for almost two months now. It fits great and I have had no issues at all with it.
Here are a few pics. One is before I removed the IC sprayer bottle. I plan on making a heat shield box that will isolate the filter for the most part. I have the patterns cut out I am just working on getting the sheet metal. I say working on it because I want to get it for free from my job. I’ll post pics of that when I finally get that complete.
I need to get a IX BOV as well.

I just got done installing this kit today. All the pieces were made so that they fit perfectly, however, it is very tight getting them in there. I saw a few posts where guys were saying to take off the front bumper and I think that would help, especially with the intercooler piping.
I agree with jxs1984, the intake pipe is a bit long and took some "convincing" to get it into it's proper location.
Took it out for a test drive after installing and it starts building boost about 400 rpm sooner and spools up quicker.
Biggest thing I noticed was the sound difference. It now sounds like a friggin tornado under my hood when the turbo spools. Can also hear the stock DV now too.
Total installation time for me was just under 5 hours. But I was also doing this in my driveway while it was 12 degrees outside and had to stop every 20 minutes because I would drop my wrench b/c I couldn't feel my hands.
