I think you guys use a Speed Density sensor which I believe won't work with this intake.
They use the MAF sensor, which both USDM and EDM FiST's have.

USDM also uses the MAF sensor for temp readings, but use a Speed Density strategy for fueling (MAP+TEMP, etc)

Injen pulls in the hot air from the engine bay like any other short ram intake, Cobb and Mountune's designs shield from the hot engine bay air. A little birdy reports that CP-E is working on a similar design as well :)

Installed mine yesterday's !!

Nice sound seriously, I like it, not too much is just correct. When you have the windows down your hear really good the whoosh of the turbo if you compare to stock.

For the performance I don't have really push the car the temperature was too cold and the Potenza was at the end of life.

If you have the windows up and the radio OFF, can you hear the turbo sounds??? ….and if so, do you have to flog on the car to hear the turbo or can you hear it at partial throttle as well?

With the windows up and the Radio OFF. Yes you hear the turbo sound. The sound is not as strong there if you have the Injen intake but its cool.

I probably try to take a video off the sound in the next days when I have the time.

thanks for the update...This is exactly what I'm hoping to hear as I'm not looking for additional noise...

I should have mine installed as soon as I find some time within next few days to hear for myself....
