I just picked my 97 prelude on thursday and i have money to put in an intake for now. For some reason im drawn to the secret weapon r intake. I've heard of tests run on it by a magazine and it proved better than AEM and Injen.

I also found this website which sells the cold air box for only 60$ vs around 100$. So in total i will spend around 220$ for the intake plus the airbox.

Any last opinions before i make this purchase?
And how do you think this short ram combo compares to say an AEM or Injen CAI?

(Btw the reason i dont like aem or injen is cause i like to be different and not have the same brands as anyone else.)
PS: If your gonna tell me to search expletive off and move on...

 

I want to see someone do an eBay intake w/K&N air filter vs All.
Seriously, why spend so much money for maybe a 1-2hp gain over a no-name brand?

 

its already been done iLude, search it... I would link but im too lazy...

If I remember the dynos acurately showed this.

AEM V2 > Ebay + K&N > Injen > *That one japanese intake cant remember name* > AEM v1 > etc etc

Also note I believe the different between the aem v2 and the ebay was approximately, 1.7 hp... not worth the 200$ difference

But, you get 24/7 tech support.....
