WEAPON R


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...946578124&rd=1

AEM

There's a pretty big difference in price... will I notice much of a difference between the two brands?

Thanks for the replies guys. I figure I'll go with Weapon R, since it seems like a reputable brand. Anyone heard any bad things about them?

Also, should I pay 50 bucks more and get this Weapon R? Or will there be no difference?

If your going for price than i would suggest going on ebay and getting a Bomz system... i think thats the brand anyways they sell like 25 bucks plus shipping for a short ram intake

I wouldn't imagine a $25.00 intake to be a very good option...

How hard is it to install? Will I need to take it to a mechanic or can I do it myself? What tools would I need?

you can do it yourself. Are you gettin the CAI or WAI?.. You need to dissconnet the battery and remove it. There is a bolt that holds in in place so you need to remove that. Next you need to remove the black air box.. should be 2 bolts inside and in the bottom remove those 2, next you just have to work that out. Dissconnect that throttle body cover black thing and remove with the rubber hose. If you doing the CAI, you need to remove the tire and fender wall liner. Next you need to remove the Bong from the lower part of the old intake.. Not 100% sure what holds that in but just as basic as the top part. remove all old parts and start with the install. If you have a manual tranny, you need to also purchase the clutch resovoir mount.

After reading that, I've come to the conclusion I can't do it myself.

About how much would a mechanic charge to install?

It took me an hour to change my light bulbs. That's the extent of my mechanical experience thus far.

What other modifications can I make after I do this intake that would show some small gains in hp/torque, I was thinking about one of those engine mount thingies, and some ignition wires. How much would that boost me?
