Not a thread that compares them all. I did sign up in 2010 to get info on rx8s. Didn't buy the car till this year. I'll see what I find, thanks.

I have the AEM intake and it is pretty good. Just that I've been warned several times about avoiding puddles.

Yep. LFMF. The search function on this forum is kinda retarded because it searches for any thread with the words you use showing the latest posted in threads first instead of the most relevant like Google does. If it hasn't been posted in in years or even weeks, it's buried. Took me a while to find my own thread on the subject 0.o

Also, try searching by using Google like this:

Don't make excuses for noobs. The advanced search function works fine, I use it everyday. I also try an report threads that have meaningless titles since they are against the rules as well and make finding good info take longer.

I'm still a noob, but there are noobs who expect to be spoon fed and there are noobs who search and then ask questions.

I think he should get the Typhoon... another member just posted a DIY on how to box it up so that it's almost as good as stock, minus the CAI sock.

All you noobs haven't mentioned the Spectre intake yet. You build it yourself and it increases power the most.

Why do you want an intake?

A) Power
B) Looks
C) Noise
D) All of the above
E) None of the above

My suggestion is OEM air box with Racing Beat ram air intake
