The second picture you posted actually brings a good point, when I was researching front mount filters a lot of companies offer a filter shield, I wonder if we could get something similar for this?

this is a good design, i ran the same type of design in my NA G37. The only true drawback was that I had to remove the front bumper cover for cleaning. I did drive up the I15 from LA to Vegas in rain, with a few miles of heavy winds/rain - no issues. BUT, the grill was slightly different on the G than it appears to be here on the Stinger.
Depends on what conditions you drive in, but i would think every oil change if not sooner. couple of bad splashes of dirt water and they will be filthy. Maybe SSR will come out with some sort of shieldingHow often would you really need to clean them?

I didn't have a shield on them, but i think AFE sold a shield. I had the AFE takeda long tubes on the G. and yes, LA so we don't get much rain or elements but plenty of dirt and dust. I was cleaning these at 5k miles when I did oil changes.Good info. Did you have any type of shielding around the filter? Im assuming you are from the West coast? Curious on how these will do with ice build ups.
1. The maximum gains is based off the greatest delta, max hp made might be only increased by 10hp but a increase somewhere else in the power curve may be greater, but still less than the highest hp made.
2. The intake duct from the outside is quite restrictive. It comes in at a very weird angle and the entrance is very small. This seems to eliminate that bottle neck all together. Which is probably part of the gains.
Good observation and curious where you’ve seen other intakes gaining 29max HP? Can you please share links to the dynos or threads showing those results?I'm reading the dyno as 16 hp peak and 29 hp max which is the same as other intakes. Lets call it 16 hp increase to be consistent.
This one takes off the stock snorkle which eliminates a small opening and some turns but pretty sure it keeps the stock rectangular duct which is a little on the small side. JT also uses the rectangular duct but can also pull in engine bay air if needed.
Very pretty design but $650???!??!!
Nobody show this guy the JT intake, he might have an aneurism.

It's only like $10 more.
It’s $895 aud to USA is $636 that goes up and down.I thought it was $650 Aus and like $800 US?
Other way around $800 AUS which is $570 US plus shipping so around $700 US.I thought it was $650 Aus and like $800 US?
