Arrow Best RX-8 Intake

**Yes Ive used the search feature, and done some additional research on the side. However im still somewhat lost.**

I just traded in for an 04 RX-8 2 weeks ago and im ready to upgrade to a CAI. Whats the best available intake on the market today? Ive done some looking around and I seem to be drawn between HKS and Revi. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I honestly think the search function is becoming more useless as time goes on. If you search for intake you get 99.999% crap and .001% substance.

agreed to an extent,
most the time you can find what your looking for, but you still have to sift threw countless of pages sometimes to find the slightest bit of info..

I never understood why people get so upset at others for not using search and answering their own questions. However calling us dumbasses is not the way to fly. Sharing is caring

I'm debating between the MS/AEM.

Coming into a forum a newbie, and within 4 posts calling an older member (someone who you are asking for help) a "dumbass" is NOT what you should be doing.....

It's like calling on the forces of nature for a cataclysmic disaster to happen right in your front yard....

If you had actually searched you woldnt have any questions... this topic has been beat to death 1000 times over.

There is a stickiedthread called "Intakes, intakes, intakes"

How much easier do we need to make **** before people start doing their own leg work?

BTW buddy, if you searched you'll realize that any performance gains from an intake are negligable, so you should pick the one that you think sounds best.

Question answered. Problem solved. Try doing your own homwork next time, dumbass.
