I would be all over a carbon fiber mugen intake for the dc2R's. Damn that would be sweet. How about area 51 probuces a Mugen intake replica in carbon fiber. I'd buy it

if it were carbon fiber MAYBE I can justify the $600 price tag . 1hp per $100 isn't to good of a ratio if ya ask me (this is coming from someone who will prolly buy the mugen intake for a seft christmas present )

lets do da math here:

1hp for every $100
intake is $600
so that equals = 6hp

math is your friend

I'm sure the MOOGEN is a great piece, but $600 is a bit steep IMO..
If I were to get MOOGEN mods I'd buy one mod per year.
