Will this help me. I am trying to stay at about 425 rwhp but I would love to make this and lower boost. Wonder if this will help me make more power off the motor with this better flow. I would love to make this power and be able lower my boost

Our intake system will definitely increase flow, our runners are 33% larger than stock FD intake system. You will need to touch up the tune because of the increased full, also will see an increase in power and torque due to the larger runner as well as having a plenum.
not sure if this was answered, but is the uim shorter than stock? i havent seen any pictures of this installed in anyones fd yet, either pics on the motor but not in the car fully put back together its in the car showing the lower or not fully together. just looking at it in pictures makes it seem like its shorter, if so that would mean i would have to have the intake piping to my elbow redone, will it also be in the way of the oil filler neck?

Yes the lower intake is about 15mm shorter to clear strut tower brace as well as hood clearance.
We have partnered up with Chip Urso to to make a billet spacer to put the greddy elbow back in its original spot.. no intercooler mods needed as well as no mods to oil fill neck

Sweet, thanks for that info. Just what I needed to read. Saving up to get this then, the spacer is perfect so no little rewelding to the i/c piping to meet the elbow sounds great..
Now I have to save up for this and the throttle body, all look so sexy

Will you sell just the TB spacer? This might be good for FCs, the FD UIM/adapter/TB have trouble clearing some vented hoods (sexy style).
We are excited to show some data from our intake system from this last tuning event.
One of our customers went from a TII stock intake system to our full Elite intake system with a stock rew throttle body. Same boost level 14psi nothing else changed on the car. The car defiantly needed to be retuned after installing our intake system.
On the dyno graph you can see the red line on the graph is with a stock intake system @ 14psi
The blue graph is with our Elite intake system after retuning with the same 14psi the car picked up some horsepower. but the one thing we are very excited about was on top end the intake helped hold horsepower thru out the entire RPM's.
actually, the Elite lower intake is about 3/4 shorter than the t2 intake. The elite one measures 10" the stock one is 10 3/4. The uppers are as follows S4 T2 3 1/2" from the flange to the top of the intake, s5 T2 4" same measurement place, and the Elite one measures 4 1/2" same measurements.
The increase in power in the upper RPMs is staggering. Are you on 8.5 or 9.0 rotors? The engine is making very healthy power and seems to breathe extremely well.

I was surprised and impressed with the results. I'm using s4 t2 rotors, so the 8.5
How is the throttle response and overall driveability since the manifold swap? I'm really considering going all out when I finally get my car assembled.

Throttle response is nice and crisp, when you go WOT, the car comes to life a lot faster. As far as driveability goes, it drives much like stock, well after the tune. The intake lends well to the street, the car seems to have more low end grunt too. I highly recommend swapping this intake. I'm getting ready to splurge on another one for my turbo fb
We have worked very closely with designing this billet spacer that goes between the throttle body and greedy elbow. This spacer will allow everyone to keep their greedy elbow and all accessories in stock locations with no modifications.. thank you everyone for all the support
