That's like the Injen kit. Both an air intake and UICP.

They don't mention anything about an UICP. It looks like it's just an extension for the shorter pipe to get it down into the bumper area.

It is a UICP and the kit is just like the Injen kit but it is like 300 bucks you can find it in the vendor section. I think vivid might sell it....

Its not like the Injen kit, the Injen Intake runs straight into the turbo. This one does not look like it does

Additionally as I have neither seen either in person what would it run into and what would be the benefit of running straight into the turbo aside from the obvious reduction of flow issues.

The Injen Intake is a complete intake that connects to the turbo inlet. This kit is just the upper piece of the intake and a UICP. You will find better gains with a long tube intake connecting to the turbo inlet

Also i don't see a MAF housing from the pictures provided, but im sure it has one. Looks like another fine option for those looking at intakes!
