I just ordered the RM Racing Low Restriction Air Intake / Cold Option Alloy ( http://www.rmnsx.com/s2000/cold_option_alloy.htm ) has anyone bought and installed this? I'm curious if it's something I'll be able to do on my own or if I'll need a shop to do it. It seems like it should be easy, but I've never installed anything on a car before, other than a replacement horn on my S2K.

I found quite a few products on this page that I hadn't seen the last time I was there http://www.rmnsx.com/s2000/s2000_catalog.htm .

A few of us have it. I had mine installed and the mechanic who did it (who I trust) said the lower part (flexible tube and scoop) was not worth doing and would not make any difference.

I'll be posting some pictures of my install in a few days. AaronS2K has posted pictures of his several times.

Just posted a picture on this thread: http://www.s2000online.com/forums/showthre...p?threadid=1731

Here's a copy.

I JUST INSTALLED THIS SYSTEM AND HAD NO PROBLEM UNTIL I GOT TO THE FLEX TUBE AND THE SCOOP-IMPOSSIBLE. I CALLED RM NAD WAS TOLD IT IS VERY EASY TO INSTALL FLEX AND SCOOP. I ASKED THEM FOR A DETAILED INSTALLATION EXPLANATION AND WAS TOLD THAT IF I WAS IN ARIZONA THEY WOULD INSTALL IN 15 MINUTES, I AM IN FLORIDA. I AM RETURNING THE SCOOP AND FLEX FOR CREDIT. OTHER THAN THIS IT IS A VERY CLEAN AND GOOD LOOKING INSTALLATION. THE SOUND IS TERRIFIC, LOUDER THAN STOCK WITH A VERY "THROATY AND MASCULINE SOUND".

Hey Rick/Charlie, did either of you do your TB by Proflow? If not, do you plan to and do you think it would be an additional benefit or a waste of $$ ?

 

Didnt do the TB not sure if its worth it either.........sorry

JSOREN, that's cool that it worked out for you...BTW, why are you screaming? Did you know that typing everything in CAPITAL is equivalent to SCREAMING OUT LOUD...

 

But have you noticed hp gains with the air intake system?

 

I believe you actually lose HP with this design because it sucks in warmer air from the engine compartment.

Looks nice though.
