Personally I think an intake is not worth getting if you compare the performance versus the price and risk. Risk being voiding the warranty and the intake leading to other problems in the car.
I had the SRT intake for my IS. I wasn't dissatisfied with it, but when I look at how much it cost and the very minimal gain it had on the performance, I would suggest against it. Especially tapping in to the ECU can lead to other serious problems.
If you're interested in taking this up for a hobby, I would get an intake that doesn't tap into the ECU, or an exhaust to start off.
