Fairly easy to install. Got the BPV delete and kept the OEM breather, I will add a catch can soon. Stock BOV doesn't sound bad, definitely better than when I had the BPV.

Nice! I took the day off so I could install during daylight, but the mail never came until after 7pm, luckily my buddy had lights!

Looks great dude. Interesting that it doesn't come with any sort of heat shield. Guess it is a fair bit away from the engine.

Thanks! Yeah I am going to monitor for heat soak and see if it is detrimental at all, last night it was about 60ºF when I drove home so I didn't have much of a chance to test that.

Installed along with the MAC solenoid.... that sounds pretty Very happy with my SXTH purchase!!! Now, to get under the car and install the resonator delete pipe and the rear sway bar.

Nice! I have had my intake for like 2 months, it's still sitting in the box.

It literally took about 15 mins to install, not bad at all. A m10 socket with a LONG extension will cut the time down. The two clamps that secure the rubber boot to the intake will take a deep 10mm socket to get the clamps tight.

Been really busy with other stuff not car related, I will probably put it on this weekend since i will be out in the garage installing parts on my motorcycle.

what is the difference between this and the K&N? besides the heat block from the K&N.

There is no point in putting in a cold air intake. The stock intake is way more efficient for cold air. since the stock box has a direct spot where the air gets sucked in. Where the aftermarket will take in hot air from the engine since that original air flow is spread randomly. Mainly you'll get the sound but the efficiency from the stock.

I just did this exact same install, and now I'm wondering if there's any risk in doing the BPV delete. How has yours been doing? Any problems caused by the intake at all? Sxth can do an intake pipe with a bpv port, and now I'm wondering if that would have been a safer option.

No, the BPV is shielded by the tray underneath and only releases air, so nothing should get pulled in. If you're worried about it you can get a proper aftermarket BOV and leave nothing to chance. Mine has been fine so far!
