I received my Password:JDM intake the other day. I've heard complaints of bolt holes not lining up on the "ColdAirChamber" so that's first thing I checked. All those lined up but the 2 holes on the ColdAirChamber do not line up with the threaded inserts on the RamAir scoop:

These things:


Don't line up:


I think I've blown my chances of getting an exchange too because I filed down a bit of the inside where the scoop meets the ColdAirChamber thinking I could get the scoop to fit fine... as it was even worse before. I guess I'm going to have to enlarge the holes a bit. Just a heads up for those thinking of the Password:JDM.

 

As much as everyone rants and raves about PW JDM, I'm not into their products. I don't think you have a difficult task ahead of you to make the intake work. Even some of the 100% JDM companies have slight errors with their molds, their parts are at times 95% fitment.

 

I have seen some good password parts, however, I think the are a little overpriced on their carbon fiber s2k parts. IMO

 

I really like the full diffuser tho

 

^ me too...but they are soooo expensive Hard to justify when I've yet to get a chance to track my car.

 

Should'a just saved your money and went with the airbox mod. Sorry to hear bro...

 

yeah way too expensive, IMO they shouldnt cost more than a G, the other $1500-$2000 you are spending is on the passwordjdm name

 

Overpriced hype imo.

 

Nice fitment, good for you

 

So if another Company were to come in and produced Quality carbon parts at a reasonable price there would be an interest?

 

Im sure there would be, but the drawback is the cost in materials, labor and equipment.

 

id buy the password intake just cuz it has proven performance gains good looks and sounds good... i can deal with drilling a hole or two in exchange....

complain about a grand for an intake? how about all those suckers who bought gruppe-m intakes brand new? lol
