Default Top Fuel Zero-1000 Power Chamber Intake

Does anyone have this intake or know if it is a SR or CAI? Do you think that it will
perfrom nicely?

The picture is just a universal picture, not of the one for the tC.

Uhh for that price i would get something from a company everyone knows. Such as Weapon R (SRI), K&N (CAI), Injen (CAI) Oh and most of these companies are a little cheaper than that one shipped

top fuel is a well known company and makes some top notch stuff.. top fuel specializes in quarter mile racing (zero-1000 Meters that is..) and builds some of the quickest japan-only cars.. so just like endless and arc.. its an honor to have a jdm company make a part for a car that's only sold in the US

^^Agreed I wonder if they were given a test vehicle over there to do R&D? I am in the market for an intake I might just get that just to. I am not concerned with power on this car so I am looking for something more eyecatching then a typical CAI or SR so this might fit the bill.

are you sure you're not confusing Top Fuel with Top Secret?

dammit. i knew i was gonna mix those up.. so i'm guessing 1000m is like a half a mile? top secret japan also does drag... but only with supras, skylines, and silviias... top fuel's pretty impressive because they max out power on fwd civics and crx's. i know all of you are going to hate me for posting a picture of a hond.. but just to give you an idea of how hardcore top fuel is... check this out. it's a 550hp turbo mid-engined rear wheel drive "CRX" that does the quarter mile in less than 9 seconds all while being street-able.. i know it looks all ricey.. but its a drag car with a functional wing..

I don't know why but this del sol reminds me of the del sol that was made to look like its an X-wing.

Actually, Top Fuel drag cars aren't just limited to Supras and Nissans. As evidenced by that Del Sol above, they also tune Hondas. As a matter of fact, they used to campaign this CRX that Turbo Magazine featured in one of their issues. They were pitting it against Cyber Racing's (Tony Fuch's to be specific) Integra...this was awhile ago (98-2000?) so I might not be 100% on point...but yeah, Top Fuel "does drag" for Hondas.
