Hey all, Been wanting to get an intake, Got some money and do not no what to get.. Need some opinions on the matter. Thanks.

 

how is the AEM intake?

 

Racing Beat with ram air duct is the way to go. Not loud at all untill you stomp on it.

If you want a loud intake go with the K&N typhoon

if you want to keep warranty go with the mazdaspeed intake which is the AEM design

 

k. And for performance?

 

Once again, it's been beaten TO DEATH in literally hundreds of threads, look around

 

good luck getting much performance out of any intake.....check out some of the threads like wafer suggested

 

The AEM (which is essentially the same as the Mazdaspeed one) offer about the same performance benefit (<5bhp). I believe it is generally considered louder than Racing Beat but quieter than the K&N.

 

were you not banned for beings stupid????

search for thread intakes intakes intakes.


beers

 

i think all of those threads are stickies in the aftermarket forum

 

I think you should be banned, new comers should be required to take a course before they get on so they know how to search.

 

thanks for the haten on me day peeps haha

 

If you want a to go cheap then I would recommend the RB REVi intake duct and the OEM Intake Mod I personally love the look of the HKS Reloaded hence the reason why I fabricated one just like it. AEM/Mazdaspeed CAI would be my third choice though

 

Mazdaspeed/AEM and then Racing Beats REVI.

 

Nothing breathes better than the OEM airbox.
Now, if you are looking for noise, there are many options that have been discussed at length in the various stickies that you were verily commanded to read when you signed up for this forum.

 

FWIW +1 on OEM FTW

heh

 

+2 on stock airbox. It's already cold air and already well designed. You get a bit more power and sound with the Racingbeat REVi with airduct but not the best bang for the buck out there. I'd work on the suspension first.

oh one more thing...

 

Ha! Mine says RX8Club on it!

 

Yeah and it looks about as smooth as claymation.

 

I love claymation! Especially the Claymation Christmas classic specials!

 

I loved the Claymation Christmas with the California Raisins! BEST SPECIAL EVER!

 

Wallace and Gromit FTW!!
