How much? And what is the difference between this and a K&N cone with adapter?

The intake itself is nice, but those filters are not too good !

Installing the weapon R

I just got a weapon R myself, and am awaiting delivery. I was curious how hard it is to install, and what kind of special tools are needed if any. I am not the most mechanically inclined person, however I am not an idiot, so I can probably figure it out if it is straightforward. That said, is there anything I should be careful to do/not do so I don't ruin my car?

install is a piece of cake...just becareful with the maf sensor treat it like a little baby cause it can malfunction on u. also the only problem i had with the weapon-r is that the bracket they send u doesn't really fit on the maf sensor so u might have to drill new holes as i had done. The intakes that i am selling come predrilled by me cause i already did it for my car. I had the same problem on my 97 with the bracket. But all in all it is a very easy install i think it took me like 2 min to remove, 5 minutes to install and like 10 minutes to drill the new holes so figure like 15-20 minute install

I don't know how they are on Maximas, but from what I know about them on Hondas/Acuras, etc... they're mostly just for looks and sound. They won't give you much (if any) real gains besides that. But if that's all you're after, $160 for the whole setup isn't that much I guess.
