Just look at the name, It Explains it self, Just dont waist your money on that, Get a Franken Car instead, Next best thing is the Injen CAI

It's pretty much the same thing as the Injen... IMO it doesn't look as good though. I looked into both of them because at the time frankencar was pretty backed up with orders and I didn't feel like waiting. I eventually went with the Injen though.

True and if that thing starts to break down, your engine will suck the foam in. Not good!

I have had my Weopon R for over 2 years and cleaned it many times. The filter is still in perfect condition and I have always loved this intake.

I dont have a weapon R... but that nice little mendrel bend would be really nice in these Frankencars... it would make them fit a lot better.
And IMO foam filters are awesome. I have a foam filter on my dirt bike, and ive seen dirt caked on there REALLY thick, and my air box was still spotless.
You need to know what your doing with a foam filter. If you get one where you can take the element out and use a proper oil then everything is good. NEVER USE THAT ****TY *** K&N ON A FOAM FILTER...

I don't think the Dragon Intake is like a Injen col air, but more like a ram-air like the frankencar.

My friend had a weapon r on his 98 gxe auto before he sold it(the car) and let me tell you that thing sounded very loud and mean. It's probably the loudest intake i have ever heard. As far as hp all intakes are pretty much the same.

Did you seriously just bump an 8yo thread? This means you know how to search, so if you are making useless posts in order to make a thread, why dont you search to find the answer to the question you want to ask? It's probably been asked already
