@sugarl4nd How's the HKS? I also have that on order.
I love HKS Legamax exhaust, no drone at all (drone is a big thing for me since I'm not young anymore). And I prefer not to have obnoxiously loud exhaust. So, HKS meet my expectation. I don't think mine break in yet, but so far it's highly recommended exhaust !!!

With it on though is it definitely louder than stock albeit more deeper growl?

is rain a concern with that extra scoop in the front?
There are two openings for inlet of Gruppe M, one is scoop in the front grill (this one has an angle down) and the other is like an elephant trunk which goes behind the headlight. No concerns on rain at all

They're legit. Shipping Just takes awhile since they're in Japan.
Appreciate the response. I think I’m gonna order that today. Then to get it all installed before my tune date on the 29th but coming from Japan I’m not paying for next day air !

If your tune date is on 29 this month, I doubt that the intake will arrive before that date.

You mind if I reach out to you for advice when I get ready to install?
I used both the Blitz and GruppeM instructions when doing my install, its quite interesting how vaguely different both companies approached the install.

This was my install video:
