I wouldn't spend more than 100 bucks on an intake...an air filter is an air filter any way you look at it, and the gains are minimal (if any) so you're buying it for the sound

what's the difference? the restriction is either at the MAF or at the TB, adding bigger pipes before that doesn't help you much if at all.

I have heard of them, they are in San Francisco, one of the guys there is also a member here (at least he was on here a few years back).

Their website is here http://www.weapon-r.com/cgi-bin/test...ppinc=search2#

I have seen this part in person but have no on car experience and am skeptical about its performance. The dual tube design seems more marketing than science on the other hand there is this dyno test from TPR mag http://www.tprmag.com/issue/1/sr-results.shtml that shows it works somehow, at least in that application.
