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

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".

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.

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

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.

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....

was unable to give feedback because it took more then 30days to recieve the item. If I could I'd leave a really nasty feedback.
