I was looking for getting an intake i was wondering which one you guys think its sounds better and gives the car the little power.

 

Ms Ftw

 

ftw?

 

AEM adds mlost hp and sonds the best

 

aem= MS

they are the same intake just badged differently

at most you are getting 4-5 hp so pick based off sound

 

ftw= For The Win

 

none of the above. HKS because of its sound.

Revi!

 

Ms

 

+1...REVi, if you want a more subtle sound. If you want everyone to know you have an intake, I hear the AEM/MS is pretty loud.

 

MS, anything else could affect your warrenty and it's not uncommon to blow MAF with any of these listed. IMO

 

f all them... save the money buy the k and n intake, take off the vfad and the plastic under it... and your done... all for 50 bucks shipped to your house... use teh other 200 bucks on .... 3/4 of a payment on sway bars, or endlinks, or whatever else you can buy or want for 200 bucks

 

revi.

 

K&N and AEM/MS are both going to be loud and get you about the same power. Only big difference is when cleaning these intakes, you don't need to remove the front bumper to clean or install the K&N

 

Why? To clean the MS/AEM you have to take off the front bumper? If so, that sucks sweaty as$!

 

I think u do becuz it goes right behind the bumper.

 

But i was watching a this clip, this rx8 had a AEM intake and it sounded really nice. i think im going to go with the MS/AEM.

 

go K&N for ease of installation if you dont want to remove the bumper. i had one and i loved it. it can be loud for some people though. i didnt mind it but some of passengers werent to happy

 

You can make one yourself that is functional and costs a lot less. Aftermarket CAI's are overrated and overpriced.

 

agreed.... if you wan tthe cold air get the racing beat ram air duct and use the stock box and k and n filter... its 120 bucks

 

The REVi is just too quiet though. If you're looking for the complete package. LOUDNESS, POWER, COST and EASE OF CLEANING. I would stick with the stock airbox.

Loudness - Remove the VFAD and the 2 dividers inside in airbox.
Power - Cut the air inlet to a larger diameter and add a K&N drop in.
Cold air - add the RB air duct.

Cost - under $200 and will provide about the same gains as the more expensive units.

 

In all seriousness? Forget about all 3.

Spend a lil more and go for the RB Revi + ram air duct. You wont regret it

 

It should be noted that removing the bumper off of this car can be done in under 5 mins with hand tools.

 

If I was to buy an intake it would be the Revi with the air duct.

I have the air duct with an Apexi filter modded to the stock air box.

If it was open air it adds quite a bit of noise above 5 k rpms.

Realistically it will take 2 - 3 hours to install the Revi with duct.

 

So since everyone has their own opinions, what is the true definitive answer here? Which one is the overall best?
