If anybody here has Weapon R Dragon intake, please post your opinion about the product. They claim a 7hp gain.

AlexM,

As you can see, people here aren't giving the manufacture claims much credit...

Hey AlexM, I would be willing to bet that intake will actually lose performance! It seems Honda has done a good job tuning the intake box; people who have tried removing the lid or using open-air filters have actually felt a substantial loss in power (and it's been measured with a g-tech). That intake might sound neat but it will most likely hurt performance -- and all for about $200!! Just buy yourself a nice drop-in replacement like the JR filter (it's europe's version of K&N) and save your money for something that actually works!

True. What I wanted to know is if Weapon intakes work as good as the competition. (being the least expensive). They also make a Ram Air kit.
