Ok... I'm looking to get an intake for my ITR. People keep telling me Icebox, others say AEM, others say stick w/ the stock intake manifold. Just to see all of your opinions, choose one or add your own

 

I love my CAI, I won't tell you which one because if you do a little investigating and use the search function you will find a Sh*tload of information on this dead beaten horse subject.

BTW since I have a good CAI, I MUST tell you that the most performance gain that you will Feel with a bolt on will be with the Header. A good quality JDM piece with a 2.5" collector is what you need for more Power!

The CAI is nice but, the stock intake is also very good and free since it's already there. You might just save the money for the intake and Buy a drop in K&N, Comptech or Monster filter for some good gains.

And seriously do your homework, the ARC is of high quality but it is also of insane price, simliar to the Mugen intake. I'm sure they perform well but if you have AC then the Mugen is out of the question, Unless you've got rich parents and or are independantly wealthy, then stick with just the filter, AEM or Comptech piece.

Think JDM HEADER!!!!!!

Of course thats just IMHO...

Good luck,

A.

 

Short-ram, K&N filter on stock tube. CAI unnecessary.

 

I say go with the lightest (if you are going to replace the stock system).

In that case, my vote goes to the Mugen. With A/C - I would go Comptech.

 

Custom Iceman available from Topspeed Performance.
Black plastic color, 68mm inner diameter on upper pipe.
Just go to the hot air version during rainy season.

Homemade.Went 14.1 with just that a friend went 14.0 with his and at a cost of less than $100 you can't beat it.

I recently drove a Type R with the Comptech ice box and the car felt so weak compared to the AEM.
