IMHO, don't do it at all... The Altezza's seem to have issues when you put a pod on them, you'll get a low spot mid way through the rev range where the powerband kicks in, unless you are running an aftermarket computer to tune this spot out, not really worth it, plus... I decent panel filter (K&N, HKS, GREDDY, TRD) will give you better flow than the cheaper Simota brands Plus, you'll probably drop in a good panel for cheaper the doing the whole pod setup.Hope this helps.

I agree totally, my car came with a pod and I got way better down low performance by getting a factory airbox and TRD panel filter, would probably recommend the k&n filters though. |

+1. I had a pod, and went back to the factory airbox. The pod makes a great noise, and feels like you have more top end power, but it's just because you're losing it in the mid range. |
