weapon r intake good or bad?
so im sure many of you have seen the claims that weapon r makes regarding its "3x's more air" secret weapon itake
any of you guys have one and so would be able to share your experiences with me as to what you think about it. according to other reviews there are very mixed feelings about it

intake is a intake
unless your high horsepower its not going to matter. I prefer stock piping with a kragen adapter and a 10 dollar filter walah INTAKE |

Oh wait, he put it in Chat not Polls... I wouldn't trust their air filter. Looks like foam crap. Their intake tubing is nothing special. Just like everything else. That magic red tube in the ads "is for illustrative purposes only" and none of the intakes have dual tubes. They are trying to show the magic bull shit their dual entry foam air filter is supposed to do. To bad their R&D department slept through physics class.

They are one of the few companies that actually fabricate parts in house & test-fit on actual cars instead of just blindly copying other products. Most of their intake systems are also CARB'd: Weapon*R Racing Development They may not make the craziest performance parts on this side of the globe, but what they do do (intake systems, accessories such as coolant & power steering reservoirs), they do well. That being said, OP: for the n/a 240sx, an intake is basically an intake. Since you are in Cali, any CARB intake system will do you just fine.

if you had a v8 in your 240, a intake would add HP.
Instead you should get 1) lightweight crank pulley 2) lightweight flywheel 3) 1 piece ds (aluminum) thank me later adam as for engine bay bling since your car is a show car get whatever looks dope, you can even have machinist make you a dope ass engraved piping and just use a maf adapter and use like a hks filter. Should come out to the same cost of a injen / brand name. |

try to find a injen/aem intake piping then go to kragen. they sell a MAF adapter in the ricer performance mod section. Get that in conjunction with a hks filter and you will be balling also hows the engine? |
