IPD install this week, questions....

I have an appointment to have this installed Tuesday at RAC/RUF in Dallas, but Solomon mentioned possible faults. He has not installed on a 2014 yet, but has experienced this previously.


Have any of you installed with any issue (codes/faults)? Anything to be aware of going in that will prevent throwing faults?


I've read others having good feedback with this modification so I was surprised to hear of their concern.

Installed? It's Tuesday after business hours! After the computer adjusts, very interested to hear your thoughts? TB too, or just plenum?

Hi guys, install was moved to tomorrow (Wednesday) due to their backlog. Hope install goes without a hitch. Will advise.

Good to know. Thank you. Are you satisfied with the "upgrade?"

Absolutely! With the Akrapovic exhaust, tune and plenum, I love how my car drives.

Install went fine. No engine errors.

Billed at 4.5 hours ($585) because the rear bumper had to be removed and the engine dropped. There is definitely a power increase. Not huge, but seems to pull harder midrange.

I had intended to dyno before and after, but RUF does not have one on site so I would have had to run it around.Of all days, it was pouring down rain which we desperately need so I just didn't feel like messing with it. I'm happy with it.


I think a tune will really bring it alive. Coming soon.

I'm assuming when the ECU learns the new intake by adjusting to the greater airflow, power should increase even more. As I understand, it takes some full throttle runs to accomplish.

Well I've been working on that as soon as I turned the key the first time.
