Anyone do the Weapon R intake? Sorry if there is already a post about this or has anyone done the HKS Magna Flow filter or the Fujita Short Ram? I'm torn between getting one of these three.
Thanks!!

i have a question, my fit is in auto transmission. right now i decided to upgrade the intake. so which kind of intake should i go with? is it better if i install cold air intake or short ram intake? i want to go with cold air intake but afraid it might not suitable.
but for real. I have not found one picture of the box installed on a GD1 or GD3. ANYWHERE.
I saw this video on youtube about a guy in Hongkongs Honda Jazz. Hes got the ARC induction box and bunch of other goodies installed. I was in Hongkong in August. The Fits and Accord euro-R there are so effing decked out! haha. but check out the vid.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMt34X1lJjI
Oh. haha. cool. sorry for reposting. So i installed my Fujita CAI last night but the intake pipe is really close to one of the steel lines. is this going to be a problem?
put up a pic so i can see what u mean. Its not a big deal on the repost. I like looking at it LMAO
HAHA. yeah it is a tight vid. I'm jealous of that dude. But yeah I'll take a picture after work tonight and I'll put it up. Its that one metal line that didnt need to be removed for the install. I dont remember what its for though but it kinda arches out toward the section of the cai tube that dips into the bumper.

Try my SSR intake. (the link is in my sig)
For about $50, you won't hurt anything, least of all your wallet.
So far, there are dozens and dozens of very happy people with my intake system. Many of them, including myself personally, have seen a significant gain in mpg, coupled with a few other inexpensive mods.
My names barack obama and I approve of this message.
OK the ARC intake is THE ABSOLUTE BEST INTAKE, or so I've heard however i went to speak to my usual shop thinking it was gunna cost 300 or 400 however, it is 640 bucks...the guy who orders it for me said ARC always charge like 10,000 bucks for everything they have...regardless after seeing what it looks like, being in seperate temperture from the engine...seems really good and i still might consider it.
With my experience with hondas the ARC intake is the the worst intake ive seen. They always place it next to the header and in front of the radiator to soak up as much heat as possible. In my last 2 cars (integra and S2000) they have lost up to 5whp. And with those prices its ridiculous. The design looks a bit better for the fit but I cant see why this is any better than a regular chamber intake. The filter doesnt sit far enough into the air duct. Probably weighs more than the stock setup. And it looks like the intake itself would get extremely hot as opposed to a carbon fiber one thats half the price.
From my understanding J's racing only made 4 intakes so its impossible to purchase one. You can get the T1R for $400 bucks and im sure it will perform better than the ARC.
I sure wish J's made a ram air intake like their S2000 intake. That thing was well worth the $1000
