I have a proposition for y'all. After seeing the purple paint job Papa Bear has for his intake, I asked what I could do to get a different color than black or chrome.

To make it worth his while, it will take a total of 6 of us to purchase custom paint schemes. It's an extra $60, but that's because it's a true automotive paint with base color and clear coat shot in a booth and baked on before shipping to us. I don't know what it runs in your areas, but the local shop here wants $100 just to spray paint my taillights dark!

So, yes, I'm doing this because I really want the red CAI for my car, but I think it's a slick way to get an intake to truly match your color scheme.

Again, here are the details. Please post it up with what color you want if you're in:

Item: Descendant Racing Intake
Cost: $250 (free shipping)
Colors: Red, Gold, Purple (maybe a different color with enough demand???)

Colored Intake Signup List:
1. MightyP - Red
2. WellesleyScion - Gold
3. johndeo11 - Blue
4. DEF3NDER - Blue (sciontc2.com)
5. pearlwhite_z - Gold
6. ???

Or get the regular intake in polished or crinkle coat black here. 189.99 with free shipping!

 

I was just wondering if the other (not injen) CAI on ur site can also be converted to SRI?

 

Are you referring to the takeda?

 

@mighty-is the $250 already painted?

 

^ Yep. $189 in chrome or black or $250 in color.

 

oh okae. dangit need to save money then. lolz

 

Definitely! The price is incredible whether you get it in color or not. Excluding the Obnoxious Performance website, the Injen intake is generally running about $260 and the Takeda intake is going for over $300. And both are just in your standard black or chrome.

A quality, custom paint job will normally cost you more than $60 unless you happen to know a paint guy.

 

Papa_Bear PM'd you so this thread doesn't go offtopic cuz of me

 

Papa bear...your don't have a dyno sheet or specs on what gains the descendant intake has do you?

 

I wish i wasnt broke, this would have been the best opportunity to get a red intake like i wanted!! D:

 

I don't have any dyno sheets from descendant yet, however I have access to all current intakes available and currently they all follow the exact same path with identical piping size and a similar filter. All the different gains these companies are putting out is really just a play on the dyno numbers. This intake however just happens to be a fraction of the price

 

Just ordered my descendant intake and motor mount! Papa Bear rocks!!!

 

Just confirming, AEM Dry Flow Filter?

 

I got my injen intake for $221 and coated black with free shipping. Never mind, i see that it's a aem filter.

 

Any photos of the Descendant Intake installed?

 

The intake filter is an AEM dry flow filter used in the kit.

Photos installed will be up tonight!

 

MightyP intake looks great!!! Any pics of any other colors.

PS We should have pics and dyno sheets up in a few days.

^ Thanks, but it's actually Corey's intake. I'm getting mine in red! now I'm just hoping enough people (1 other person would be a nice start!) get in on this to I can get it in a custom color.

 

COuld I order one without the AEM cone?
