No that will just be a hot air intake. The stock air box with a high flow filter is your best bet hands down. Dont waste your money on an intake, they do nothing for our cars.

That is still a hot air intake, there is nothing to keep the extreme turbo heat away from the filter. Like I already said the stock air box is more than efficient even above 300hp. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
