Best intakes r?

Best intakes r?

Postby rewmomi » Thu Oct 25, 2007 11:53 am

Hey I have been shopping around for the best intake for my car. I found out that almost everyone has an injen intake. So I was wondering in weapon R was a good company as well. I have heard about the CP-e intakes which are pricey so do u have any suggestions?

Your only two choices are the Injen or CPE.

You might need to save that coin if it lands in favor of the cp-e. I believe weapon-r makes an intake for the 4-bangers, but don't quote me on that.

Weapon R does make an intake that works with the Gen 1.5 I4s....

Which engine do you have?

Weapon R is cheap EBay type intake. Save the time and trouble and skip it.

Injen is good - Looks pretty and sounds very nice. If you are not into squeezing every Hp out of your car, then this is for you.

CP-e: The correct way to go but costs the most. This is for those who push their cars to the envelope. If you're still running stock springs and stock wheels, you probably don't fall into this category.

I like it when this question rolls around... 8)


...but I'll spare you all the rhetoric. :wink:


(I can only speak for the Gen 2... but... judging on the basis of the form, function, and fraternity within CP-e's ranks... )

...I'd go with a CP-e with the CRISPMONGO air filter. :o
