I highly considered as I know Cobb makes good parts, but was just worried about the lack of heatshield.

I'm pretty sure you can buy a heatshield by itself from some of the vendors on here.

I made a entire how to for making a heat shield for the COBB... just search in how to section.

Costs you about 30 bucks and 20 minutes of work.

Ahh should have seen that earlier. Thanks for the link. The OP definitely should find that useful, and I would have if I didn't buy the aFe intake lol.

I have the Cobb sf intake on my RA and it works great! I had a AEM intake and switched to the Cobb sf intake and I can definitely tell a difference.

I love this intake. Went personally to their shop and picked it up! Drove to my work had it on within 5 mins and impressed within 10 min . Its like a night and day difference once you throw it on hearing the turbo spool is one thing but leaning out our super rich car gaining some reliable power is another! cobb ftw!!!

laxplayer, you didn't have any issues? i read their bracket was for 08's and the 10's changed slightly and requires some modding to make it fit?

I am also interested in this intake. How do you like it? I know there are tons of threads on intakes but none seem to include the cobb sf with the AMS or Injen. how does this part compare to something like the ams cold air system... Maybe they are all about the same.
