i lovedmy ARC

i think the "hater" ness is just like every other high dollar JDM piece.. haters talk crap who dont even own it.

i loved it.. after i sold and drove car back on oem i was VERY saddened

 

owned it, lost power, sold it. looked great though.

 

I dont think anyone is hating on it. I have lots of ARC products and think they make great parts. The truth of the matter is that this one product is not about gaining HP its about Throttle response (which after sitting at a stop light or heat soak sets in is also effected)

"my 1st dyno i had just a invidia exhaust and put down 197hp.
my 2nd dyno with same invidia exhaust, invidia test pipe, arc intake..put down 210hp."

I think those gains were more from the test pipe and the exhaust working well together than from adding the ARC intake. Either way great gains

 

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but will the ARC intake chamber fit with the stock airbox?

If so, I wanted to keep the stock airbox with a drop in filter, and snorkel, but change the intake piping....

Please advise fellow tuners!

 

It would make sense, because they sell them seperatly, but I have no clue because I bought my car without the stock intake box.

 

It seems like it would make sense and fit, thanks for your bit of input!

Unfortunately, with the 2006, they make virtually no parts (without hacking and modding them) for my car!

Hopefully I'll start to see parts released soon.....
