You guys think the arc induction is worth the money ??

 

Depends on what your out for really. Performance-wise no. BLing factor yes. Not sure this is really an UTH type post tho.

 

Moving to S2000 Talk as per:

YES!! I love mine and wouldnt' go with any other. The sound is awsome and it really fills up the engine bay instead of leaving it empty like the others.

However, if I planned on getting the absolute edge (removing trunk lining, lighter wheels, etc.) for track days and such, I'd probably go with something like the AEM V2. But, unless you're going all the way, the difference is negligible.

BTW, if you get it, be careful who you talk to about installs. Some tell you to notch the frame and drop the A/C line. This is not necessary for 02+ models (or is it 03+?).

Oh, and if you get it make sure you get the box and the chamber. There are two peices to this. The best place I found that has the lowest price for both brand new is this place: http://www.rxecret7.com/arc-honda.html

 

^ Looks awesome. What cooling panel is that ARC too?

 

Yeah, it's the ARC titanium panel. I wish it followed along the sides better instead of just being like a rectangle, but it's ok. Engine bay looks cleaner with a radiator panel wheather or not you have an intake IMO.

 

performance wise, and for the money, no. You can get other intakes that have proven HP gains for much less... If you want bling, I'd go with an ASM, but then again, it's double the cost of the ARC... Depends on what you want... I went with the HKS, alot of people are jocking the Mugen type, and alot say their both a waste of money and buy an AEM or Injen... Do a search on the ARC before you buy one... there were alot of questions regarding the effectiveness of it's engineering... Remember, ARC isn't really too bothered with products for the S, so while R&D was most certainly present, it may not have been as rigorous as other companies... Just something to think about... Hell, I might buy one just for shows because it does fill out the engine bay a little more than my HKS, but I doubt it puts down more power...
