I don't fault you i just think its for another car. An RSX would be about right. A Buddy got 12WHP with an intake and catback on his Type S.

Wow this kept me entertained for a bit. That thing does look like **** especially for $300. For some reason it all sounds a bit scripted. Especially the story about the girls wanting to ride in ur car. I mean what kinda girls u pickin up that are like oooo a black tube with PRM sticker...take me for a ride.

Thumper3322 states that the reason he likes the CAI is because it PRODUCES better sound and faster throttle response. He doesn't even care about the 3-5 WHP gain.

People keep flaming him because the CAI looks shitty and honestly I agree. After all when you have a car that is as beautiful to drive as ours, you really want to spend most of your time parked in a mall parking lot with the hood up and the engine cover removed showing off some shiny intake.

and you guys really believe Thumper3322 is the "retard" here, fair enough. Seems to be a reoccuring theme over at RX8CLUB.

Have fun sitting in a parking lot admiring your engine bay this weekend. I'll be driving the ice fields parkway, climbing above treeline and back below. The only time I'll have my engine bay open is to add oil.

Thanks for the review Thumper3322.
Cheers man! Thx...NP! That is all I was trying to do, bring some light on a new product to the 8 community, so people aren't buying something with zero back ground info. To many haters on a simple IMO review

Again this review was all IMO and everyone has a different one of course. I still love it, and glad as hell to get rid of my MS CAI for this one.

In fact, RB admitted it was a challenge. No one has documented in this thread whether the PRM intake either gains HP or loses HP. If it doesn't lose HP, then it's all about the sound. Thumper likes the sound. Others may not. What IS important is that he likes it for HIS car. He isn't trying to sell these to anyone, just getting information out about a product. I agree, it should be tested. It would be great to see any HP or temperature differences between this and his MS CAI.

Thumper.. Thank you for the information.

*steps off soapbox*
Cheers!! NP...exactly! Thx!

I'm glad you like the intake Thumper3322. It doesn't mean everyone else has too, we all have our opinions, it doesn't mean we are haters.

I'm glad you are happy with your filter on a stick.

I'm not negative man, life is good, I wish you well. I just try to give prospective and I question BS when I see it and this intake is BS. Your post are one thing but posting up BS dyno charts are another. If you wanna support this mod a simple dyno test would shut us all up.

So Mr. Charles Hill, any progress with your review on this intake? I am very eager to see what someone with considerable more knowledge has to say on this matter.
