Default Mishimoto Intake??

So whats the deal w/ this new intake? I have heard mixed reviews about it being the next greatest thing as far as intakes go. Has anyone bought or installed one of these on their Zs and if so whats lyour thoughts about it. I have an Injen already and want to know if its worth spending another $350 to upgrade.

Money would be better spent elsewhere.. Perhaps plenum spacer?

Rather buy a 06 airbox + drop-in but i'm sure its better than your Injen considering it is a CAI?

Looks like a dustbuster and those hose clamps seem mightly flimsy and thin for the price.

then again, the carbon airbox looks strikingly similar to this $1k jdm intake:

Pretty close I agree. Bulletproof must be rollin in $$$$ w/ the prices they get. Some of the stuff in rare and worth it but the price on others is just crazy. 300 seems like a sweet deal at that point

+1, $300 is a bit to pricey for a "new" company.

Man, I thought ARC , was overpriced, but Real Sports takes the cake.
