Default Possible ARC Intake

Ok so I bought my EH2 5 years ago that came with a random intake guy said he payed a good penny for it but didn't know exactly what it was. Well I didn't know much about Honda parts at the time so I figured it was ebay crap or something. Well I ended up getting rid of it and buying a K&N instead. Well while rummaging through my garage today I came upon the intake my car came with. After looking at it and going through the market place I can't figure it if it may be a genuine ARC intake I keep telling myself it's ebay crap but the welds everything look identical to a legit ARC intake.

Also did not want to post in the ARC Magic thread because again not sure if it is ARC. Don't mind the MUGEN POWER sticker it had guy slapped it on that use to own it he thought it was a MUGEN intake who know's.

So I was hoping some experts could tell me if it's replica crap and toss it out.

CLIFFS: not sure if I have a legit ARC intake.


Now on to the pics any help will be appreciated

^^ That is a "REAL" EG6 chamber...

I'd say what you have is "REAL" as far as dimensions and similarities go. Without the authentic sticker it isn't worth much, especially in that condition.

Also, it is incomplete, what you have is just the intake "chamber". To have the complete intake you need the "induction box" to go with it.

The complete setup looks like this:

Edit:if you want to sell it or want me to look into the box posted for you lmk. The filters are pricey I think, but k&n sells replacements.

Would not mind spending the money on buying the rest of the set up. But not knowing if it's a authentic ARC I would be wasting money.

Even without the decal, if you polish it up, it'll still be worth something to collectors.

Couldn't hurt to post it in the ARC Magic thread and ask. I'm sure AirBagClub or someone who knows more about this particular piece can verify it's validity.

Not authentic ones. I've been looking for months with no luck.

(If you know someone selling any ARC decals though.... lemme know)
