sorry to threadjack, but how are the ebay knockoffs or a DIY CAI compared to the Injen?
I know it probably all goes down to tubing flow & the filter... just curious

I say Injen. TRD = Injen + AEM Bypass. K&N is a little skinnier. Weapon-R is junk. Fujita causes CELs. Ebay is crud (unless you get name brand).

yea .... I don't agree Nick. Weapon R is a good design ... and I like their ram filter concept too. Now, too expensive, I'd agree with.


Fajita FTMFW!!!





Props to the guy that made this one .... I think you can all figure out who that is.

No, it's not a good design. One of our scikotics members here in NJ has it. the air filter keeps falling off. Another person on SL installed theirs and apparently there were metal shavings inside that blew the engine.

Also - the Weapon-R SRI for the Supercharger screws with the A/F Ratios HORRIBLY. It doesn't help any in terms of power.

Eh, I've seen my friend's Weapon-R and i've seen the intake filter fall off on it's own. I'll just stay away.

Yeah that one's designed solely as a CAI. But yes he knows how to tighten a clamp. It's not rocket science... Then again, they may have redesigned it - he bought it 2 years ago.

For power, check this thread out:

Then which ever intake you decide to get, PM carcandy to see if he has one in stock. His prices are pretty competitive.

Nick ... if your friend would like, I can bring my pipe expander to a meet so he can flare the end a bit. I'd bet a buck that it would never fall off again! I just have to see if the expander can get to 3". If not, you just wrap it with a rag, then use it.

I don't even know if he still has it. I'll check.

my $50 k2 motors cai off of ebay works just fine. i bet it gets almost the same power as the brand name ones. because what is an intake? piping and a filter, that's all it really is.


So what if my girlfriend drives a Supra, I'm more sexier than she is! =)
