^ The only problem with that is...most people with Mugen intakes see a gain on a dyno. Not with the J's though (unless I can be proven otherwise)

I think I'm leaning towards the GruppeM today. That might change tomorrow.

Its rare, looks beautiful and should work good. It seems to be pulling air from where the Comptech pulls from too.

Not sure yet, I might still go with Mugen or J's. I'm waiting for an email back from GruppeM before I decide.

Not true. There is gain with both.

Well GruppeM replied back to my email...

------------------------------------------------

The GruppeM Filter Ram Charger for Honda S2000 is composed of black carbon fiber and is a 100% handmade in Japan. It produces an increase of 12 to 18 horsepower (depending on the engine condition) and the torque of your car improves dramatically, especially at high end. It looks exactly the same as the one in the picture attached in your last email 24/02/05.

Fitting of this kit does not require any modifications, it is a very straightforward replacement of the car air duct and should take no longer than a couple of hours.

At the moment we do not have the fitting instructions in English for the Honda S2000 however there are diagrams with the instructions which are quite clear.

------------------------------------------------

12 to 18HP increase from just an intake?!?!
