Thumbs up

I'm planning on replacing my stock air box once I finish my rebuild, so I've been looking around at the alternatives. Spotted this the other night(when I was looking for ETDs)

Have any of you guys ever tried the Weapon-R Secret Weapon Air Intakes? They look well made, and that Ram Air Kit looks interesting.



Thoughts, opinions?

I've heard that entire line is cheap trash. Maybe someone else has a different opinion?

I've read the same thing, several times, that they're garbage.



If you're going to go with a cone filter, you're going to lose performance over the stock intake, unless you come up with a way to isolate it from the hot engine air. Relocate the filter outside the engine bay, or build a box around it and duct in fresh air.
