Default GS400 Weapon-R intake 4 sale

Asking $160 plus $10 shipping. Paid $215 new. The system was used for only 2 weeks. I'm not too happy with the quality of the system. Thanks!

Jeff,

If you don't mind me asking, can you be more specific on what you dislike about this intake? When you said the quality, did you mean the fittment, performance, and/or noise?

Here are the reasons:

1. They shipped me the wrong filter. I received the "star trek" looking filter. Upon closer inspection of the filter, I notcied that it was really porous. I don't think this filter has much filteration at all, if you can see light through it. The good thing is the older sytle filter is much less porous.
I know foam filter are good. Almost all dirt bikes run foam filters with oil. And dirt bikes run through alot of dirt and dust without any engine damage. When I compared them back to back, I'm sure the Weapon-R won't come close.

2. 2 of the 3 fittings for emissions that attach to the 3" air inlet pipe was tapped not welded! What type of engineer/designer would think threads would hold in a alum. thin walled tubing? So it wobbles around.

Maybe this is an isolated case? But I cringe at the fact that whoever says they make quality products..

I had the same problem when I order my intake a couple of years ago for my Acura legend. I also had that thread look alike pipe sticking out. They also send my the wrong intake after I told them what year I had twice. I am glad I bought the SRT one instead.

what did weapons r say about your intake because for sure it's a bad pipe and usually they should be good at replace a pipe for you?
