I came across this intake online and haven't been able to find much info on them.

Would this concept be suitable for our cars?

 

That's some China stuff. I wouldn't go for it. Get a more known brand. Joe Z is a pipe that can attach with your stock box. Much cheaper. With that price u can also go for a JDM brand.

 

I've never seen that intake and like it, especially with the carbon fiber. You can add more blue accents and carbon fiber with that intake. In all reality, the intakes out there give you roughly 5HP max. Probably similar aluminum tube (either black or polished). That site has proven to be quite reliable. I'd go for it if you like it.

 

That intake uses a foam filter element; I'd pass for that reason alone

I've been eye-balling this one recently AND is priced right!

dang... the words are in Japanese also lol. Looks cool man ! go give it a shot and send us your status update. Bite that bullet.

 

Looks like junk. Get the Fsport or joez or one of those really expensive ones.

 

The price is quite good. One thing I did not like is the lack of heatshield. Wouldn't it just suck in hot air from the engine and decrease power without the heatshield?
