Ok i was looking for an intake for my 98 prelude and i came accross a company called Weapon-R. The model that they make is called "Dragon Intake" Does anyone have this intake or know someone who does. I was looking at the Aem V2 intake as well but everyone i talk to says that its not worth it. Dragon intake costs $125 on the home site but i know where i can get it for $95 because i am awesome.

 

Weapon-Rice.

And $100 for an intake is rediculous IMO. I can build a cold air with K&N for half that price.

 

Yeah, Weapon R is kinda ricey I guess... But it is still an intake and if you can find one for cheap it gets the job done... I have one but I got it for 15 bucks and I love it...

 

Exactly. You can probably buy a cheapo eBay intake, ceramic coat it, K&N filter, and have a quality intake done.

 

What do you mean by "Ricey"? Where did you get yours for $15?
How much hp did it give you when you installed it over stock? Did you dyno it?

 

2nd that

 

My car had a Weapon R intake on it when I bought it

The filter was a POS, it was foam and it looked like a claw or something. I just bought a K&N filter and used that instead and it worked fine.

But enventually, I just bought an AEM CAI, and it was much better than the Weapon R. If you are going to buy the Weapon R, get a K&N filter. But in that case, you might as well just buy something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...38634 , and just put a K&N filter on it.

And there is no point in dynoing after installing intake. You're not going to get any more HP. Maybe like 5-10 at the most. But it will sound better

 

lol you show me an intake that gave u 5-10 hp i wanna see it.

It's possible. I said in my post 5-10 MAX. With a good CAI, it's possible, but not likely. I read an article a while back (I'll try to find it), they dyno tested serveral intakes on the K20 motor, and each CAI made 10-20 WHP.

 

ebay pipe and good filterr is all you need i am actually selling one right now

What the hell is CAI intake?! you guys keep saying that and i havnt got a clue as to what it is...

 

CAI= Cold Air Intake

Raaarrr, I like my claw. And what's wrong with the foam filter?

Basically Italyn, don't spend money on decals - get a pipe and a good filter. Unless you want a 100$ decal..?

u must realize that k series respond MUCH differently to bolt ons than b/f/h series...

 

So im guessing that you have the "Claw". How do you like it. Would you recomend i get it for 95 smackers?

 

DONT SPEND 95$ ON A CAI !!!

unless you just a moron

"unless you just a moron" Ummm, ya...and your calling me a moron?
You need to slap yourself in the face right now...idiot

 

well it sure got your attention...

me 20$&gt;you 95$

 

But if i get this intake we can both agree that it will perform better than an e bay intake, even if it is just a little bit. Plus, its crab exempt and looks awesome, and looking awesome might not be worth anything power wise but it is a major plus

 

i can gaurantee you that it wont perform better. plus carb exempt doesnt mean **** since you live TX. but i wont say anymore after this. its your money. it looks like your pretty set on buying it so do what you want

 

rice this rice that, the dragon filter imo works the same or better than k&n i have it is it rice? NO, i dont have a body kit or a wing my car is a 89 lude h22a dropped 2 1/2 all granada black sleeper , my beast likes it and i do to do stop beating on weapon r ,all ready dam its not a big *** company like k&n with a rich *** ceo
feel me.

 

there are direct copies of AEM CAI's on ebay that go for $18+ shipping.

 

there is an article, I don't know if it's TPR or Drag Sport (can't remember) about a intake dyno test. THere were a a few intakes dyno'ed and the Weapon*R short ram did rather well. Of course others did as well too.

I will see if I can find it and post it up.
