I got my Weapon R intake and put it on last night. Today I saw a few of those guys that I raced before and the guy in the Eclipse wanted to race me again. He said "Ive beaten you twice already why not beat you a few more times." I didnt know how much of a difference my intake would make. I had only drove around with it for about 20 minutes before I saw these guys. Anyway We went out to our usual spot to race and lined em up. We decided to run a longer race this time because he was just sure that I wasnt pulling on him last time we raced he said he just switched gears and was getting ready to pull away big time. Anyway we raced and he beat me off the line like usual but my car did seem to be pulling harder with the intake and right about the same spot that I was 1/2 a car length behind him last time I was dead even with him and then pulled about a car length on him and beat him. The second race was about the exact same. He was ****ed and I was happy as hell. It was a great feeling to beat that Eclipse!!!! Just thought id let you guys know how that went. I was pumped. Take Care

Intakes increase your gas mileage because of more air flowing into the engine..
I would say get the Place Racing Cold Air Intake.. don't waste your money on anythign else

I was thinking that I didn't want to go crazy with the intake because of gas mileage. Which one did you buy? I see they are pretty cheap.
