I am trying to see which intake is better, not much info about the ARC air box, i know alot of people happy with a j's racing intake. pls post your responses or expierences. thanks

 

I have seen dynos here on H-T of both intakes and the J's appeared to make more power. The ARC box was equal to stock.

You should forget spending $200+ on the J's or $350+ on the ARC and find one of the J's knock off intakes on ebay. I got mine for $29 + shipping.

They are spec'd for the D series motor, but the outlet side of the intake chamber is 70mm so it will also work with B series motors.

Good luck...

to JDM ******!!!

 

There has been dyno charts on H-T proving that the real J's makes more power on b-series vtec motors than the knockoffs...

I would pick the J's over the ARC in a heartbeat.

 

I had a full ARC setup on my ITR. Initial throttle repsonse is very good and you feel a torque jump however the intake loses out big time in the top end. I would pick the J's intake over ARC.

 

Where are those graphs??? I'd like to see a difference...

I have had both fake J's & the real J's EK specific intakes side to side and they are the same shape & size. Except one is carbon and the other is plastic.

Only difference is the filter.

 

thank you RPM, that is what I was looking for, I will be revving high, have Skunk2 Stage2 cams, so I guess i will purchasing the j's racing intake chamber.

 

make sure you get a K&N filter, that alone will give you 1-2 hp across the band. The filters the J's comes w/ is not too good.

 

do the J's intake only fit Eg's and Ek's i could have sworn i read that somewhere ...because i was thinking about getting one for my DA but i wanted to amke sure it would be able to fit ?

 

If your DA does not have ABS it MIGHT fit if you relocate your battery.

I have test fit one on my DA with ABS, and a relocated battery - there is no way it will fit.

 

i dont have ABS ...and im planning on relocating my battery ...but i wouldnt want to get one to test it out and then have it not fit ...unless i could get ahold of one jsut to try it out and tst fit ...
