It's more of a Honda thing. Don't know anyone that has it.

I've heard of one guy....

that has it....I think hes one of the DC guys. IMO I've seen it at the local shops, nothing special at all, just some intake piping and a "flashy" looking cone filter(which looks cheap IMO), I'd stick with the standard cone intakes(JWT, STillen, etc) or CAIs(WSP or Cattman).

There is one 4th gen guy who has it... I don't remember his name though. It's like DA-MAX said, just a chrome intake pipe and an odd-looking filter at the end. The filter looks something like the HKS Mega Flow filter. I can't see how the extra money over the JWT would be worth it.

the intake looks very exotic, i don't know about the performance gains though. By exotic I mean it looks very different from other normal intake filters.

the exotic filter has 2 velocity stacks, and theres also a ram air attachment for that too. and i was wondering if that aluminum piping would make a diff...cuz the JWT and stillen are just cones right? i'm thinking it might just make a diff in sound

I installed one.

The DC guy you guys were talking about. I did that install. The filter is made of foam so it might provide better flow. The piping is pretty well made. Polished aluminum. The MAF adaptor seem to be made of some sort of heavy duty ABS. The fiter looks exotic with these plastic dividers on it. Now for the bad parts. The kit came with the wrong size MAF adaptor. I had to rig it. He called and got a new adaptor. None of the nice slicone hoses that came with the kit fit.

If Weapon R can stop mess up packing the box with the wrong parts, it's a pretty good intake.
