+1 on the pics and video please!
FYI, the HP gains on this mod is very minimal on a STOCK car (meaning W/O a TUNE). The dyno sheets above shows 12hp increase W/ Procede V2, CATLESS downpipes, and 100 OCTANE. If you're planning to run this setup then it makes sense to replace the stock airbox with this. Just my .02 cents.

My car definately pulls a hell of a lot harder then a stock 535 now that I have fat tires, exhaust, intake, and sprint booster. I didn't really notice a differene in power, just a better sound! But I'm sure if I dyno'd like the 335 on paper it would have a hp and torque increase for sure.
I sold my cell and have my gf's shitty ass motorola for a week or two, but I promise after work today I'll bust out the gf's digi.

I installed the Logic HVI Intake today. It's a very simple mod, straight forward pipe+air filter. No bolts or screws required. My shop took about 10 minutes to install it. Free of charge but I through them each $20.
First impression is great! You can hear a slight whistle while accelerating, mainly at low rpm's. When you hit it a little bit the whistling turns into a deep growl! Definately made my car sound more aggressive. With the intake and exhaust you can't go wrong! A must do mod for 535's! and for $250 at trinityautosport.com you can't go wrong. I'll update this thread with some pics later tonight, and eventually some vid's of my car on the go.
My advice to 535 owners.. DO IT!

I got a question about that intake. I mean, the stock airbox rams air from under the car and into the airbox allowing cooler air to go in. But your HVI intake is mounted inside the engine and seems to pull seriously hot air into the intake. Doesn't that suck donkey ass or what? Why not just get a K&N Filter and slap that sucker into the stock airbox and call it a day?
