haha he's feeling it, we should start tossing out ideas for an intake now haha. ive managed to do pretty much nothing to the 8, saving money to put together that boost :D and waiting for more interceptor X reviews of course

 

must . resist . urge. to spend more. money.

 

When I first installed my RB exhaust, I was LOVING it!

3 days later I installed my RB intake and Ram Air Duct....WOW!!

What I love about it is how quiet it can be at idle and easy driving, but just like the exhaust, when you go WOT you REALLY hear it! (just ask Xrider01 about heraing mine on the freeway during some 'spirited' driving we did)

 

ok now let me ask the ?. your in orange county, did you pick it up or did you order it online. for some reason it's cheaper to order online and from out of state. then it is to just go direct. comments please.

 

Micahel,

I ordered it from mazdaparts.com and they gave me a GREAT deal. I told him I was a member of this site and he waived the shipping on it.

 

I ordered mine online through Mazdaparts as well. Racing Beat doesn't give you any incentives or discounts to order directly from them. The only advantage you may get, is quicker shipping. My intake had to come from a wharehouse in Mississippi, and then it was lost by FEdex....long story, but yes, order it online.

 

did you guys do self install or take it to some else to do the work. i used to do all my own work, but i no longer have the tools or the place to work on cars. oh and the most important part i realized i hated getting grease under my nails. yeah i know sissy...

 

I did the install by myself. I installed the intake and ram air duct on the same afternoon. I don't recall what it took me, but I recall it being about the time indicated in the RB installation booklet. Not many tools are needed. Screwdriver, sockets, wrench...not much more.

I think Jedi had a friend's help.

Definately not something to have a shop do....definately no need. Its as easy as building Legos from those little pictures they give you in the box. Easy.

 

I did this at home with the help of a friend. (even though it can easily be done by yourself)

Very few tools needed like Keith said...just a few hours of work and you're set!

 

micahel if you do it i might as well....jedi's story is very compelling

 

well i guess you guys talked me into it. i still have a wedding to help pay for in july. not mine ha ha ha... but i guess i could spend a few more dollars.

 

YAY!!

You made the right decision Michael, I know you wont' regret it. Besides, my mpg has even gone up since installing my Revi Intake.

 

I saw an increase in MPG, but then gas quality really changed and it has dropped lower than what I was getting prior to the intake installation.

 

Winter formula usually does that to your mpg.

Don't worry, it'll get better after memorial day.

 

yea.....i was like OMG! i want it! can anybody who has RB intake/exhaust system take me on a WOT ride? i want to hear that beatiful sound again

 

Jabberwock is GIVING away two MS bumpers for the trade of one OEM titanium Grey bumper. A thread is up in the FS section, as well as the western region. This is an awsome offer for those with Titanium.

 

heck yeah it is, i would be all over that if i had a ti grey

 

Why isn't this a sticky anymore? Guys should we start setting a date for the next malibu meet?

 

yeah, the mods are starting to think we're not serious, lets do this

 

All I know is that this thread is staying at the top of this forum section, sticky or not.

 

How about the Last weekend of May, the 27th or 28th?

 

may sounds good to me.

 

hey jedi. does fast freddie, i think thats the names you said. anyways, are they into doing the regular scheduled maint.?? it's time to have my 8 serviced, and i would preffer not to spend my life's saving's at the dealr....

 

given that addictive has dropped out of this thread...I think the torch is passed to Xped. My vote is for the 27th.

 

You'll have to beat the San Bernardino thread for that honor. And watch out for the LAX thread.
