and for all the weapon R haters out there, whats the deal?..i think the secret weapon for the tc is a good all around intake. the install was quick, it looks good. and it sounds great from about 3000 rpm on up too the redline,and bonestock under 3 grand..and to top it all off, i did over 100 miles of driving today without the apperance of the infamous CEL..
thats was with city ,highway, and flat out on the backroads
all in all, the car sounds better,pulls harder and longer, and the intake does not mess anything up when installed properly

i really didn't think that weapon-r throws CEL i think it was an install thing. when people who installed them, they just quickly rev'd it to hard the 1st time round that the ECU never got to compensate(sp?) weapon-r didn't really have a good name when they 1st came out but seems to me that they are actually taking steps to known as a good company... but that's just my opinion BTW

Ok this sounds good, because i am considering this intake, and my car is complete stock as well. I am hoping that i will hear more good stories this week before i make my final decision

I think they redesigned it also to help with the CEL problem- sounds like you may have gotten a newer one?

whats the deal with the filter on the weapon-r? I'm not really looking to buy it, but that's one of the big reasons why. In the past a lot of people either used the reusable K&N Filters or something that looked really similar. I'm a little bit skeptical of the weapon-r design's reusability as well as it's efficacy.

so is it best to install and let the car just run idol for about 10 minutes?

The filter on the Weapon R seems to be some sort of foam, which is supposed to be better than the cotton based ones? not too sure though. and they are reusuable according to creativeconepts

hahaitzskippy

yes

indianenvasion

Hey Honda, where you get your intake from?

mahalzkita28

you can get the WR intake cheaper on creative compacts i believe. its like 190 instead of 250 its like 190 or seomthing

i got the intake from rsworks.com...disconnect the battery before you take the oe intake and air box out,reconnect everything and then let the car come to temp about 10 minuets..be very carefull with the MAF when removing it..and the filter looks to be quality to me, unlike other filters it takes air in from the top and sides unlike others
hope this helps

I agree!!!! I finally got mine yesturday and was out of town. I got to install today and I put over 100 miles on it since and no cel and it does pull a lot harder in the higher rpm ranges compared to stock air box.

$180 at creativecompacts.com cheapest place I can't wait till I get done with my audio stuff to buy this intake...

I installed it and just drove the car under 4500 rpm for a day and I have no problems yet and it has been 4 days. I love the sound w/ my trd exhaust at 4500 rpm.
