I know this topic has probably been beaten to death, but it would help me if I could get all the info in one place. So...

Which Short Ram Intake kits are available for the tC? The ones that I am aware of are:

K&N (two-piece CAI)
Injen
Weapon-R Dragon
Umnitza CFWerks

Anyone have opinions on these or know of any other options?

Thanks,

i love my weapon r. no worry about hydrolock and nice gains as well.

 

Do you have the Dragon or the Secret Weapon?

 

Nevermind...I just checked your Profile...you've got the Secret Weapon.

Anyone hear anything about the Dragon? It's only $129.95 at Pro Street.

 

I made my own intake, spent about $40 bux on a corolla intake plus a left over piece of a mustang gt intake.



I have since fixed all the loose wires with wire loom and painted the engine cover blue.

 

i also have the secret weapon intake and i love it. it makes such a nice growl. also like yellot00tr said there are no worries about hydrolocking your engine. its also high polished and looks great.

you can expand the options on the WR intake too. i added the cold air box which shields the filter from heat as well as the ram air kit that forces cool outside air inside the box. when i open my hood after a long drive and i touch the box its cold!

 

Many of our customers have had a good experience with the Weapon R Dragon Intake.. even better experience with the Secret Weapon.

Both are here:

INJEN is the best!!!!!

 

Bump for someone who has had experience with the Dragon

 

sweeeeet grille....where you get it and how much??? BTW, you did a nice job on the intake

 

I think no matter what intake you get in CAI you can make it a short ram no way one piece go through the fender all the way down

 

K&N will not convert to short ram. CAI only.

 

he wants a SRI...I don't think he is going to have a problem with hydrolocking. Unless his whole car is underwater.

 

Thx a lot, I did the grill myself, but since this pic Ive painted it high gloss black and it looks mean as hell!

 

What info you lookin for?

 

like what it sounds like performance gains dragon vs secret weapon etc

 

Didn't I read in another thread that they don't make the Dragon anymore? Maybe I misread.

Why is the Dragon cheaper than the Weapon R?

 

It sounds like the other intakes, and the secret weapon will have higher gains due to its twin tube design. For the price, the dragon is hard to beat.

 

They don't make the Hyper anymore.

Weapon R makes the Dragon intake.

 

Weapon R Ray posted in another thread a day or 2 ago that the Dragon was discontinued.
