I am just saying... last time people jumped on the intake bandwagon hype the results did not turn out nearly as good as hyped up to be.

I am willing to bet the gains for this intake will be comparable to any other quality cold air intake. And... I never went off topic. I am still talking about the password jdm intake. I am just saying its not wise to jump the gun saying this intake is going to be a godsend when there has been no testing so far.
The X-Factor intake worked quite well. As with any product, there are always some people who have issues. Goes for headers, cat-backs, intakes and other bolt on parts. Doesn't mean the product is not performing well. Just means that some people have issues.

I don't see anyone "jumping the bandwagon". This is an overstatement. Based on the design of the intake, it certainly has potential. Out of curiosity, what is your idea of a "godsend" regarding intakes? What intake out there not only performs well, but has no drawbacks? Enquiring minds want to know.
