    Default Auto Exe intake

    So far the best intake I\'ve seen for our cars, but damn it\'s expensive. No need to worry about that pesky CEL with this kit.

    i forget where (i think on an rx-8 board) i read that ram air is just bogus b/c to actually be able to benefit fully from ram ait you need to be travelling way faster than the car is inteded to do so (180+ kph) apart from this one being CRAZY expensive

    But don\'t superchargers (more so than turbo chargers) in essence have a \"ram effect\" on the intake, and horsepower gains with superchargers are in the 50hp neighbourhood.

    ok.. turbos and superchargers introduce MORE/COMPRESSED/DENSER air into the engine.. more air = more oxygen + fuel = more boooom = more HP

    it\'s not the shoving air into the system, but it\'s shoving the compressed air (more dense) in there.. aaaaaah.. found the link

    if you READ the thread i posted a link to.. you\'ll see that to get any performance (significant - where ram air would actually work WELL) one would have to travel at speeds well BEYOND the normal driving speeds 150kph+.. so having ram air is kinda like having that huge ass wing spoiler

    I think the pic refers to that duct about the drivers\' side foglight.

    I almost had a heart attack when I saw that price. I was prepared to see a high price, but it was shocking how high it was! HOLEE MACKEROLEE

    At least Espec is offering a pretty good price.

    It goes for an insane $1259 from boomplustoys.

    After I read the post re E-spec having it, I said to myself dammit, I shoud\'ve waited (AEM CAI sitting right in my closet right now). Then I saw the price and then I felt better again.
