Default ARC Intakes

I am looking into ordering a ARC Super Induction box. I was curious first off if anyone had a picture of their ARC set up (that would really help). I am not going for the most power (strange huh?) but more for something to set my S2K off from others in Indianapolis. Any opinions or more information would be great, I tried the search but I didnt come up with anything too helpful. Thanks guys

I did use the search and didnt find anything that was too helpful, I am also considering getting the MUZ intake from prestigeautoaccessories.com and was curious as to if there was another intake that could connect to this to get rid of the stock airbox (im guessing there isnt)? Thanks for the help

Request for product information doesn't belong in UTH. Moving to S2000 Talk.

A couple issues ago, there was a guy with a red S2K in Honda Tuning that had the ARC intake and loved it. From what he said, "most members of S2KI don't like the ARC intake because they think it's dumb engineering." But this guy loved it and thought it was a good buy.

No matter what, an intake on the S2K isn't going to give you much of anything except better sound and maybe a few pounds of weight savings. It's mainly for the looks. If you like it, buy it!

Well arc does make one of the best hot air intakes around....If I recall they admit it loses top end, but it was designed for low-end and midrange torque.

I had the ARC on my last S and I put it back on this one. Here's a Pic:



I love it. I think it does a nice job of filling up the engine bay instead of leaving it bare like the others, plus it sounds nice as well.

Recently though, I've been thinking about going with an Injen to replace it. The fitment is just ok on the intake chamber (the smaller section on the right) and it tends to rub on the hood a little bit (I've seen this in other cars as well). This time around I just used the inductin box and left the smaller part out. Maybe I'll keep it. It's definitely different and makes you stand out.

Hey thanks guys I really appreciate it, I figured I may try and go something different and try and show some guys whats up here in Indiana, damn farmers. I am not sure what i am going to do, ya'll know you have to consider all the options. Definitlely a PRM or ARC though, I guess its a 3-letter thing... Peace
