I like how that SRI sits. I finally decided to make my Injen CAI to and SRI and it rubs on the fender and is getting thrashed. Anyone else have that happen?

Yeah the heat shield and way it sat was a big factor when I was buying. I had the Tenzo CAI in SRI mode and it would also rub the fender. I pushed the filter further back onto the pipe kida over the little lip to fix this issue.

Here's a close up of the Takeda.



The only issue I had with this intake, and why I think so many people who buy it throw a CEL light, is that the 45 degree hose from the throttle body to intake pipe is 2.75" to 3", while its supposed to be 2.5" to 3", so it leaves a gap when you tighten the hose clamp. I've ordered a 2.5" to 3" 45 elbow coupler and will install that one for better fitment. I'm pretty sure that's why everyone with the Takeda throws a CEL.
