ARC vs PWJDM
I have used the search button so don't flame me, i have done plenty of research concerning the PWJDM intake and the pros and cons, but i have been having a hard time finding answers and hard evidence on the ARC, I've heard a lot of things from people that haven't actually ran the intake before and the ones that do seem to say other wise. Is there anyone who has ran both intakes before and can tell me which one they prefer, or someone who has had either and how they like them so far? This would be very helpful

The password jdm seems to be the intake to give the most power gain over almost every intake out there as far as the arc people agree that intake is more for "looks" as it heatsoaks a lot and might lose some power....personally I seen the password and would recommend it

If you searched then y ou would know that the ARC intake is terrible. Every account I've seen mentions the ARC losing power and heat soaking which isnt surprising being that it is a giant metal enclosure. The PWJDM intakes has been proven to make power, but has varying fitment issues.

considering that intake gains/loses are always between the 5% margin of error of a dyno, and that a dyno does not reproduce the necessary conditions to evaluate the intake performance (the car is not even moving), you will have a hard time finding the definitive proof that the intake is actually gaining or losing power..

I don't know of any IAT comparison test..
Personally I would choose an intake that maximizes speed and volume, minimizes temperature and assures a constant volume of air to be sucked at all times (but ok, there are more complex things to consider like resonances etc etc...)
I would not feel very comfortable with the ARC.. does not seem to do much good regarding speed and temperature..
But I also don't feel too much comfortable with the PWJDM (I find the elbow opening too narrow for my taste).
