I was just wondering if anyone has or has tried the arospeed front mount intake. It looks pretty cool. If you have tried it, is there a problem with water getting to the filter or does the plastic shield keep out all the water?

I don't know about water, but you might have some problems with rice getting into it. That things not gonna do anything for you that a real CAI won't do. Joe 97 GS w/ Hahn stage 2 Keep cruisin' & keep the shiny side up. http://joeseclipse.homestead.com

Well, I have to say...the first time I saw that thing sitting in the local shop I thought to myself "you have got to be kidding". Get an AEM and be happy. (or get a real intercooler and a turbo and be REAL happy)

That ain't shit! tleast it is functional! VIS racing has a freakin' fake FMIC!!!!! RMIC(Rice mount intercooler)That is so gay. Why do u wanna look fast ad not be able to back it up? There is a difference between show and just stupid.

My question to that would have to be... WHY? That is the most stupid thing I have heard of. I mean to go through all that for what? Nothing! No gain. If you want the look of a FMIC then at least mount a tranny cooler or oil cooler there! LOL!

Well I've actually heard a few people WHO HAVE IT say it works better than the cold air systems they replaced with the plastic sheild removed. The plastic sheild is suppose to be put on during bad weather and taken off when dry. Witht he sheild in place there are slits on the top and bottom of the box. If you submerge it past the top slits you will still get water damage. Still to ricey and pricey for me.

Hey DAVE_FL,
It's in reference to some wheels that I had picked out that were the shit, but they were only available in 4 lug. :\ So I bought the konigs you see in the picture. There was a thread about it a month or so back.
