thanks guys and I don't know...

I need to find out though so I can buy a few spare ones...

I know you can use a K&N filter in place of it, but that'll just be lame...

And there's another filter on the side of the box near the passender fender that will need to be replaced...hmmm...

The other piece replaces the stock rubber hose with a ARC piece. No, it doesn't intake cooler air.

So it sucks in hot air, but looks cool? Are both pieces together really worth $900? :thinking:

ARC filters run around $75-100, sometimes you can find one for less. I have an ARC box on my S13.

:goodjob:

yes, its worth the $900 for everything.

Chhris, the butt dyno says good thing. eespecially throttle reponse, mid-range, and the noise it makes.

PURE jdm, the K&N is best bang for the buck, y0.

I wish you can see the intructions. :screwy:

I'd be better off decoding the japanese symbols then read their translation.

And of course its a waste of money, but it makes me happy and thats all that matter :D

A simple K&N filter+adapter will do the same thing, but sweet lord those are the nicest looking intake systems on the planet. Gotta shell that cash out to ball I suppose.

Not enough bang for buck for my tastes, but I'm all about cheap power no matter where it comes from. I also hear that it's impossible to squeeze more power out of an S2K. Anyway, congrats on the purchase man. It looks good. :)

looks good, but for $100 more (as sonmeone said $900 cost), i would have gone with the Password JDM CF Intake.... s2ki proved it had panty dropping abilities....

yeaaaa....

I'm aware that PW has one of the greatest intake on the market for the s2k, but I wasn't feeling the big bulky design.

Plus, I just wanted something more sought after. PWJDM isn't really something to be wow'd about.

Thanks for the compliments guys

Kinda old thread btw that was bump with that weird and gay post....

WTF?

ehh, these are definetely pretty intakes and i was gonna buy one for my S but when i saw the power loss on the top end, i opted out. I am just gonna keep on running the gutted stock air box.

I reeeeeallly like the way those intakes look!

and swollix, they arent the highest hp gaining intakes due to the hot air deal (so says s2ki) but it does look damn gangster!

Haha, come on now - why does everyone do that to me! I never make any pretentious claims and I always get sucked into it. :2up: :lmfao:

Perhaps I should re-register and pretend to drive a "Teg" - and everyone will magically love me. :love:
