hey guys, whats up, i was doing some research on intake and exhausts for my 04 s2k, and i came across this ASM intake, i was wondering why is so expensive, what are the hp gains, the mugen and j's are also pretty expensive....please need some info on these intake systems.......

Regarding exhaust i will probably get the amuse dual R1 but i wanted to know about the ARC exhaust price at $3000, wanted to see pictures, all i could find was the price and also wandering why is so expensive?

 

They are so expensive because people are willing to pay that much. Have you checked out the ASM Widebody kit?

Hmmmm, 4000 bucks worth of intake and exhaust for about 10hp. Well, at least you can look at it and listen to it all day long.

 

At least it looks cool? What can I say, i paid 400 for the spoon snorkel.

 

I have an Amuse exhaust and I'm getting one fo these "expensive CF intake systems" soon to replace my AEM V2. Its expensive because its JDM yo.

 

Hey, Rod

BTW guys this is a guy just spent $$$$ on some Kinesis wheels...... I guess it hurts when you look into your bank account....

 

the only thing that you should look at, if you want the best, is material quality... composites (carbon fiber/kevlar) keep the air alot cooler than plastics/metals therefore, the air sucked in from the outside is essentialy the same temperature when it enters the manifold, it is not heated by the material it is flowing through. downside is that composites are expensive... but definately not $4k...

(just info i'm passing on that I heard from a pretty reliable source...)

 

 

I have J's intake system and love it....great sound, looks, good performance gains as far as intakes go....I would do it again and again and again
