did u have a mugen intake before. let us know the difference vs. your old setup?

oh, and how long did you wait for that baby?

like paris hilton would say, "that's hot!"

hoyl god damn!!!!!!! that looks amazing

looks amazing caus it's carbon, but it just looks like another too expensive intake that'll give you less gains then something like a aem cold air.

PROPS!

money baby yeah

Good stuff, you should feel an improved throttle response over the mugen.

thats pimp

j's vs. asm>

ASM intake produces 8-10 hp how many hp u think v2 makes?

OUCH!!!!!!!

He has money to spend, let him spend it.

Has there been a dyno to back this number up by a member from this site.

haha 8hp ya right! Look nothing againt you because if you can buy it then mad props, it does "look" amazing, but worth 3g's, god dam man.

Looks to me it'll have no gains compared to stock, lucky to get one hp. V2 is rated at 8-10hp increase, but I don't believe that either, I'd say V2 will give around 3-5hp increase.

someone else spent a grip on there intake ?

damn, beautiful piece, but ASM on a Mugen car

Jealousy rears its ugly head. What the hell do you care that someone spent $3k on an intake? They have the money, let them spend it. Is his $3k ever going to go from him to you? No. Stop hating. Do you even know the principles behind building the intake from carbon fiber? This is a race car part that was made for racing where function is way more important then form. ASM is the Current Tsukba Time Attack record holder. I think that if ASM, AMUSE, J's Racing, and just about every other Tuner with a race car though that a long metal pipe with a filter on it was better, they'd be using it.

This type of "you coulda/shoulda/woulda" posting is asinine.

If there was ONE clear cut solution to anything, we'd all have it. If it was ONLY about speed and what you can save, everyone would have a Fox body mustang barely idling sitting on its mickey thompson cheater slicks. But everyone has an opinion and it happens in all walks of life so whatever. Regardless, there is still a thing called tact.

money money money... you're my idol tom!

Another thread of people that are haterz... Props on the intake. That is a peice of art! Don't listen to people that hate they reason people do that is becuase they can't have something like that. Sorry to say I see more people on the website bash each other than anywhere else. Sad!!!

Dont hate the playa hate the game.

some of ya dont like it cuz its too big for your wallets.

Jealousy, . I don't care that "he" spent 3K, like I said mad props if he can afford it, all I did was give my opinion after giving him a compliment. If you cannot understand this then I could see why you would get sour about it, and lose cool. I don't see what me knowing about how to make an intake out of carbon fiber has to do with anything. I'm sure it's nothing short of an easy task, and part of that is what goes into the price, no doubt. Hater?, I think not. Function is more important, you of all people should know that an intake is an intake. They all are built with the same function in mind. Do you really believe that asm took the record for tsukuba because of there intake being different from other companies? Please grow out of this "JDM" phase you seem to be stuck in. Now why didn't asm, J's racing, amuse make these intakes that apparently are nothing more then "long metal pipe with a filter on it?" I'll answer it for you. They make these intakes ou of carbon, kevlar, etc, with these designs that basically look close to stock with an added air scoop because they know that there will be people who will buy then so they can make there fortunes. Plain and simple, they do not make these for there function or because there's works better then others. They make then for the consumer's, and hell the more money they get for there "JDM" pieces the better it is for them. So please keep the jealousy and hater comment to yourself, unless ou really have worth saying rather then just throw attacks at people who are only giving there opinion.


Again the intake looks amazing, hope it works well for you.

, but I don't believe I was out of line. If I gave my opinion in a way that was hurtfull, or looked like an attack then I apalogize.
