Installed the Agency Intake with no issues about 30 minutes - 3 days no CEL and the turbo sound is more prominent when you get into it but not overbearing at all

No way to tell if there is any gain since the car is already fast with dinan -last week 12.12 at 112 mph with a 1.88 60 ft -

So stupid question, but is everyone clamping on the tube with the filter after the collar (filter side) or before the collar (engine side)? I'm not referring to how the filter is attached. I'm struggling to get the connection fully over the collar.

Also, did anyone else have issues with their MAF bung? I think mine is the result of poor QC?

There was solder on the middle of the left side and the upper right corner had metal impeding installation of the MAF. Mike at X-PH, I know this is by no means your fault, but maybe you can pass on to Agency Power?

See picture below:

First of all, the intake sounded GREAT. Definitely got a better throttle response.
Alot of people complain about the heat soak in the B58 open intake near the turbo (despite AP having a shield). Let's not forget that the intercooler is in the intake manifold. You will not notice a difference... I didn't, and I tried to let it sit all hot.
I have since switch to the Dinan, but it's for the carbon fiber and the use of the intake duct. Otherwise I'd stay with the AP. Install was a breeze except for the seal around the shield didn't want to fit at the bottom, but made it work. Looks great, sounds great.
Hell, I might even switch back at some point....
