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!

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.
