I posted a thread on these around the holidays... Check the srt website around the next holiday... They knocked off $100 from the order. But, in the same thread many members chimmed in with their experiences with the srt w/ecu. Research before buying to decide if its for you. You mentioned ur more about appearance and sound... The only appearance the weapon r has is its street fighter filter. The srt has a much cleaner look and provides a better sound.

Let me correct myself - the weapon r dragon model ( tiger uppercut ) the other weapon r looks plain so im guessing u were considering the dragon filter? I say srt if ur gonna do it.

In other words, in the end, it's an "intake" with no bad rep accept it belongs in the rice scene and not luxury scene. What everybody is trying to say is if you want great sound AND true maximum performance, get the SRT. But if you don't care about performance and is just in it for the sound, then any intake will do. If you decide to change it up later, then you can. It's not like it's gonna be welded onto your car and you have to live with it for the rest of your life. We all start some where and learn as we go.

I only cared for look and sound because the dynos were pretty much the same but I see dynos with the SRT increasing 25 horsepower and torque.
