Re: ram air?
eeeek i dont see a picture<P>so i wouldnt buy it<P>I believe that Weapon R makes a intake called the dragon intake, now u can get another kit that connects to the dragon intake that soposevly makes it a ram air intake. the dragon intake cost around 225 and the kit to make it a ram is about 150 so its about 400 after taxes and what not to be on the safe side

Re: ram air?
unless your going for show car looks dont buy any kit. You can make a custom intake yoruself for hundreds less. Check around this site, there is plenty of "how-to's".

Re: ram air?
DON'T buy it. It's a expandable dryer tube, a plastic junk scoop, with two 4" hose clamps. I already got ripped on that one.

Re: ram air?
and the dragon intake is junk to. for a short ram just put a k&n or equivalent on the end of the tube. cold air do a search on home depot intake on this board and make that.<BR>the weapon r is a piece of ****. i bought it last year and spent close to 200 and you know what i got? a cone filter and a 2in long piece of aluminum pipe so i called them up and asked where my tube was and they said that was it so i said keep the whole thing<BR>Dan

Re: ram air?
yea foam filters arent very good. k&n are the best for your buck, paper filters are ok if you oil them when needed, and the steel mesh filters are good too i hear such as blitz or ractive.

Re: ram air?
Moved to the 4cyl performance forum.<P>Also, 9 times out of 10, MX-3 specific items on Ebay are a scam. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. And if it doesn't, I've got some nice beachfront property to sell you....

I used to know alot about MX-3's, but not so much anymore. Oh well.
