    not really the sound I was looking for. And I decided to go with a full APR build so I'll be ordering that one soon.

    it got advertised a lot by ECS. so much that I actually was tempted to buy it. What's wrong with the sound? I want Stage II so I'm not sure what intake I should be getting.

    Im not sure I can even quantify it. Just not for me. Here's a video of what it sounds like so you can make your own judgement.

    Thanks for posting a video with sound. I've been contemplating an intake for awhile as I believe my money could be better spent elsewhere. Still on the fence and totally hear where you're coming from with the "sound." GLWS

    Intake is no longer available. I was actually able to return it to ECS which was great on them. I didn't think there was anyway that was going to fly.

    What was not great was they insisted that I ship it back in their giant box which was ~$100
