Opinions on Weapon R SW Intakes

Whats are your guys opinions on the weapon r sw intakes? they look like a well made intake, and it would give me some more gains over the vibrante intake i have now because that stupid box thing on the TB would be gone, and the whole "secret weapon" concept seems like it'd provide a little bit more gain from the intake

the one you want to to buy was on my 'Fire when I got it. After i decided to start modding, the AEM was my first mod. Weapon R's are @!#$ty. It didn't fit right, and the "filter" is a wire screen with a sheet of 1/8th inch @!#$ wrapped around it. Do yourself a favor and get the AEM or make your own.

So your gonna be one of those douche bags that asks for peoples opinions, then shoots them all down.. go buy your crappy weapon r intake, and enjoy the @!#$tyness of it.


and BTW AEM does make a 2200, 2.2, ohv LN2 intake..ive personally seen several.

I bought that expensive weapon R foam filter (replaced it with my AEM supplied CAI filter). I noticed better acceleration man! I thought I was gonna make a big mistake. Bought one for a friend's 2003 GTI, he loved it. I got one, same thing. So I don;t know how good the intakes are but I have heard good things; I like the filter for sure all i can say

yes i did ask for opinions, no i didnt shoot them down, i actually wanted to know peoples experiances with them more or less, and i know you said you had one, but one person saying there @!#$ty, and another actually have had one and saying there @!#$ty is 2 different things, if anyone else has had a weapon r intake and not been satified with it ill change my mind and get something different, and AEM musta have discontinued them then cuz there not on the site

I bought this set up last month and it's awaiting for a install. So far it looks well made.
If it helps, follow this thread some time soon.

thank you! is it the secret weapon intake? and from my experiance just because some people say its bad doesnt mean it is, my mufflers for example, before i bought them i was told they were going to sound ricey and excesivly loud, i will say they are loud, but not ricey sounding at all, so you can believe every one
