Wassup everyone! My first upgrade has finally arrived today. My new black powder coated Mina Gallery intake tube is ready to pair up with my K&N air filters. Next on my list is a new exhaust and X/H pipe. Hopefully this will give the 3.0 a little better sound and throttle response.

Where did you buy it from, how much? What is the tubing diameter, and can you measure the diameter of the two intake sides and the diameter to the throttle body?

John,
I ordered it from Mina Gallery out of California. When I get home today I will take it apart and get those numbers for you.
Thank you so much! How did you get it black powdercoated? Was it an extra charge? I dont see the option when I go to order.
i called and asked first, and was told to just add it as a note at checkout. They said it may take a while because they powdercoat in batches but I received fairly quickly. I bought it on the 9th and got it yesterday because they coated it twice to fix a few imperfections.
Update: So, I got the tube in yesterday after a quick run for so vacuum hose and found that the small nipple on the left doesn't have a connection. I called Mina this morning and was told that the later XF's have an electronic supercharger solenoid vs an old school vacuum connect, however my year should have come with the old one and not the new. I then asked if there was anyway I could have missed the connection and was told no, my vehicle came with the upgraded solenoid and to just cap that nipple. Has anyone else found this on their 15?
Finally here!
