I like the car a lot! The intake is cool, only though because it is functional. The wheels are fine, are they just stockers painted? ---

i understand that the intake is “functional” in the sense that more air gets to the intake as opposed to the stock set up. is there any actual noticeable difference, such as dyno numbers? i have my doubts. would the (if any) performance gains out weigh the resale value loss? (i would think this particular mod would actually detract from the resale value of the car.) ---

The intake actually directs the air straight into a tube where the OEM filter sit. I like the intake alot. I also have that intake but haven’t installed it yet. For my setup, I really need to get cool air into the Greddy mushroom filter and to cool my engine bay. I also have vented hood to help with the cooling. It can gets really hot running turbos in that tight engine bay. Over all, the car look good minus the wheels. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/the-zs-new-look/69690.md?page=1)
