^^^ He has an 07... so injen is the only company that makes one so far.

i'm sorry, i could've sworn it was in b15 performance. i'm stupid tonight.

ill sell u my weapon r in a few weeks

It's definitely doable by even novices.  it may take some time if you're not familiar with cars in general.  all you need are a couple screw drivers and a basic metric set of socket wrenches.  It may seem a little overwhelming at first when looking at the directions but injen's directions are very straightforward and detailed.  I sued a tad bit of Lucas oil treatment (the white bottle) to help lube up the couplings.  it's not needed but helped a lot.  honestly i had a good time puttin my intake on, I like working on cars thru the frustration and progress to see a finished product.  It's prolly my fav possible mod for the new specs so far.  get it.

plus there are a couple of how to's on here already with pics

here's one

and fyi i didn't take my bumper off when i did my install.

there may be more how to's just look around.

whats the difference in performance, as in pros and cons to ram air and cold air?

also a member ion here does have the Weapon R short Ram, name is Jbarbaresi but i haven't seen him on in a LONG time
these pics are of the short rram on his car from his showoff page



and here's a vid of his on youtube with the Weapon R part of his sound is also coming from his BRM catback exhaust.

i just got my spec v, and im thinking i might want a cold air intake.

Might there is no might here newbie...lol i keed i keed. This modification is one of the thigns that will give you car a little more growl and a little more bite. I would def say it's worth the money.

Short ram IMO isn't worth spending money on just to feed more hot air into you engine. Your not going to get the gains like the CAI and it probably cost about or as much, I don't know I haven't seen prices.

another thing is, if i really need it, how does it help your acceleration, and how tedius is the installation process.  let me know how you guys like your intakes.

I don't think that you really need the CAI after all the car runs just find with out it, but what are you planning on doing with your car? are you going to do Drag racing and/or autx?

If you are going to just drive really fast all around the city then I would say please don't modify your car; I just read about a tuner race gone bad here in PHX where people were killed and we don't want that to happen to you or anyone else.

But if you are here like most to learn about the car and go to events then yes you need to get a CAI, however I wouldn't stop with a CAI you will also need an exhaust system to compliment the added air flow into the car. This with the CAI will help you achieve the maximum gains possible. If you want suggestions on exhust sytems I would be happy to share what I have learned.

As for my CAI I love it the sound the power and the overal performance is AWESOME, but some of that is due to my exhaust I have on. But from what I have heard from everyone that has shared info is they love theirs too. The acceleration increase was noticable and the install wan't difficult at all I took my bumper off and it made it so much easier to work on the lower part and for the adjustments that are needed.

If there is anymore info that you want let me know and welcome to the site

im mostly just trying to learn stuff about my car.

well then you have come to the right place. What are you trying to accomplish with your car i.e. Drag and/or Autx?
