Well, It felt different. Maybe it was in my head, but I liked it.
I installed the weapon-R in about 15-20 minutes. It's nothing. No mods, you take out the stock pieces, and bolt on the weapon R.

The best way to short ram a car is to go to your local parts store and buy a K&N Filter designed for a Chevy V10 this sucker is huge(about the size of 2.5 cone filters). Buy some PVC pipe and get creative. I had a INJEN and the V10 filter blows it away. I have a Greddy Exhaust and when i rev my engine the only thing people talk aboiut is how cool my intake sounds. Then When i show it to them they are even more impressed. Gimme a couple days and i will put picks of it up on my profile. Oh yeh, the who thing costs $60 for filter and $5 for Pcv pipes. It rocks and gives the same or a little more power than INJEN (Considering what minute gains are accomplished by using an intake system.)
Any questions PM me.

So I heard the K & N filter is way better than the one that comes with the weapon R. How often to you have to clean/replace these filters? Do they get dirty easier cause they're not in a plastic box like the stock ones?

for a k&n you don't have to clean it very often, and i have heard it isn't that hard, you can just buy a little cleaning kit form them. but i have heard the the blitz cones are the easiest. you just have to pretty much take the cone off and shake all the crap off and if comes off nice and easily. has anyone else heard this? or does anyone have a blitz cone?

so someone fill me in on this...
the weapon R is just a Short Ram like the Injen?

also, has anyone tried that method of connecting TWO intakes from a honda del sol or whatnot, and this is supposed to be direct fitting to go to the bottom of our front bumper?

The weapon-R dragon filter supposedly has better flow and all that goodness than any of them. It's on;y problem is it won't last because it's foam. After six months, you get a new filter. The think to do is buy a short ram, then when the filter is gone you get a K&N to replace it. I'd thought of buying a piece of 3" pipe to connect to my Dragon while it was on. Technically, it would be in cold air territory. You could get a muffler shop to bend the pipe and fit it into your fender and be in good shape.

My experience from the pod filters (and my reverse CAI) is all good. I seriously actually noticed a difference from it.

The increase is not really in terms of HP, but in throttle response, and smoother revving of the engine. My car feels like it drives through the gears a lot smoother (and revs higher).


The increase in speed is more from the better gear changes/higher revs than any HP increase.


IMO anyway.
