so I have a cold air on the car now but is this intake worth it due to the fact that I heard nothing but bad things on it cause it sits in front of the block and there's nothing but heat there of course it looks badass but I rather have a crappy cold air and gain something then blang blang and get robbed of power...what you think leave feedback especiallly those that have one

 

Keep your current cai. The ARC definitely looks great but your most likely getting better response from your cai.

 

It looks good but for the lack of performance gains and reduced filtration I would just stay stock or stay with your current CAI.

 

it just looks great!

 

the longer you drive with the arc the worst it gets. heatsoak is just horrible.

 

Stock intake + K&N drop in filter FTW~!

 

I've heard nothing but stories about it either losing power or else gaining nothing.

Waste of money. I don't care how good it looks, or how much it costs. Every part in my engine bay has to earn its keep.

Unless it's mirror polished, of course...

 

so much hate for the ARC..


i <3 my ARC, and i could honestly say it pulls a very little bit harder under vtec. it sounds greaat(gives a deep tone) at 5-6k & in vtec it screams.
*for sure a faster throttle response.

 

no

 

id rather waste 600 bucks at the casinos
