dont let ppl ruin your view on your DIY.. some ppl will like it, some wont.
the only thing that matters is that you feel safe and confident about your setup. dont mod your car to please other ppl. mod it to please yourself. that's what i did.

JDM S2000, is the stock arm's diameter bigger or shorter compared to the ebay pipe? I was under the impression that the stock arm has an opening about 3.75", while the pipes on ebay are 3". I would hate to restrict 3/4" of air.

What I did on mine was take the pipe to a muffler shop and they were able to expand the pipe to have an opening of 3.5 to 3.75. They advised 4 inch opening would be too much and crack the pipe. Do you think that helps. What would be the benefits of a stock 3 inch opening compared to a 3.75 inch opening with filter.

btw who told you more air equals more power
when will people learn that the air intake on a car is not really about how much power it can make.

I have 40 dollars into this
The airbox is gutted, the resonator blocked. Any of those intakes you mentioned are over 200 bucks
And guess what, this is almost the same as the K&n with way less heat soak
Guys who care and arent retarded stay tuned to see what i did tonight.
