If you buy one (from me) and bring it to IMW, I'll help you install it and get some pizza!


*assuming we don't have to pull the bumper to install
*We'll need to coordinate and see if we can do a 'dyno day' and get mine, yours, and anyone else that wants to hop on the dyno to do a before/after run
*Pizza is in exchange for access to your dyno charts and permission to use whatever video for YouTube.
*Help with installation is assuming IMW is in agreement with the whole thing-

I’m down, i’ve removed the intake more times than i can count already so it’s pretty easy but a dyno day with type r’s sounds fun!

Definitely 3D Printed.
Speaking of which... how far are we from being able to essentially 'download' parts? Meaning, a licensed or authorized re-seller located in Miami wants to sell the intake - they hit up PRL for a download code, print out the parts, and install it on the car same day? No inventory required. Aside from the hardware and silicone, we're not far from it! Neat to see this evolve-



I'd think just hold off until the intake is available. We'll set you up with a Pre-order as soon as they're available!

One thing though - start a dialog with IMW if you haven't already...sometimes they can get booked a couple weeks out and I'm sure you'll want to get this on the dyno and tuned up ASAP like most of us!



BTW it looks like this could be installed in just a few minutes. Is that accurate? I love doing before-and-after Dyno pulls on the same day when possible.
Considering I want to have full bolt-ons at the time of dyno, I have no choice but to wait, as painful as that is. I'm not a very patient person, but I'll manage here lol.

Super excited to get to the first final iteration of performance mods :)

Also, I've been in conversations with them the past couple of weeks and have a good sense of their availability. It will be done on a Saturday, date pending the release of this intake now...

Cool!
Are you setting up for a Saturday dyno tune session or a Dyno day where we can all show up?

More than likely a saturday session, but could possibly take off a Friday should they do tunes on that day as well. I'm hoping they'll put the intake on for me as well as the same time as the tune (for a fee of course).

Cool cool. Let me know how it works out with your scheduling.

Not sure how to set it up as an FK8-day, or if that's even possible, but I think that would be pretty dope! I'll try to reach out to those guys-
