Yet another intake Takeda sr intake

Personally it looks like the fail V1 version of the K&N intake, but at least they put it on a dyno...with a quick suspicions glimpse of a dyno sheet and an alleged 7whp +8lbs ft tq. Here's the video,

This is the K&N v1. I know this thing like the back of my hands. This intake is the same horrible design. The plastic blocks the "proper" airflow from the VFAD. It sucks in the hot engine air. Piece of crap

There's an ad for this intake in the newest Modified Mag. They're claiming it replaces the "bulky and inefficient factory intake." I have a lot of respect for Modified, so I'm hoping they just copy/pasted this description. They really need to do their homework before advertising stuff though.
