I've seen it before but, I also remember a connecting pipe that goes directly to the TB too?

I certainly has the ability to allow for some awesome air intake/flow.

But, after my experience with the short ram and HOT air "see post in Tech forum" I certainly don't want the hot stuff thank you. I'll stick with a Cool breeze.

Plus I'm runnin stock cams and really don't need that much flow and I don't really need it for around the town and grocery gettin "Hell at the price I remember I coulden't afford groceries and the intake at the same time!"

For road racing with some super hot cams I could see it but I'm just beginning Auto-X and feel that the CAI would better suit my purposes.

A.

PS show us a Pic of the pipe too. Oh and post a price, That should make everyones jaw Drop!!!

Easier said than done; especially the intake chamber which is not shown here. Believe me, I've asked (and I know plenty of fabricators here and abroad).

I should point out (for about the 100th time ) that there are 2 INLETS/FILTERS, the one on the bottom is barely visible in the pics. So compared to the AEM, this baby will suck more air

You really need to address the other aspects of your NA motor (hi-flow header, cams, TB, maybe P&P) to extract the maximum potential from this setup, but even with just I/H/E, it stomps the AEM on the top end (direct comparision with 2 Sis).

What are the HP gains with this box?

Anyone have a dyno plot with a stock ITR and the box?

You're going to need a decent JDM header & cat/test pipe to notice much improvement.

what's in the box?
maybe something like this:


Anyone know how much the Arc Box plus intake tube costs?
a good price would be 31,840 but the tube is almost that much itself(total around $500USD)

anyone please feel free to correct any of this...please...
