Are you guys still in track to make a upgraded turbo kit for the FK8, if yes, will this intake and any other bolt ons be compatible with it? Keep up the good work guys
We haven't announced any such project for the FK8 as there are other various projects we are focusing on at this time. :)

I’m going with Mishi or Afe. Waited too long for this, delay after delay with no real update. Really wanted to match my PRL FMIC and DP, but doesn’t seem like this is happening anytime soon.

I had AfE, didn't like it too much...pretty cheap imo and could not hear anything that much. Maybe mishi will be better.

I know how you feel about waiting though. I went AEM and it's doing great so far...but it hasn't been hot here yet, so we'll see how it goes once it gets hot here.

That’s what I’m afraid of, heat haha. It’s been upper 90’s and low 100’s here already. Which AEM did you go with? Need an intake solution and will probably just succumb to one on the market now lol.

They only have one "AEM", of course K&N owns the company I believe, so they have their own version. IMO, AEM is decent and seems to keep the heat away good...but I'll see lol, when it gets hot.

I went with the Mishimoto about a month ago. I am happy with it and I like that it blends in really well with the rest of the engine bay.
If you go with the Mishimoto, I would suggest that you gold heat tape the outside of the box and use the cool silver tape on the inside since the box is metal and this will help with the temps a little bit.
