I e-mailed them and the response was that they have an intake with piggyback ECU, programmed to the customers specs for....

$1200.00

Good reason to stick with SRT.

Rock, brotha save your money.... The Weapon R's customer service is not great and the intakes aren't much better. My suggestion to you would be an SRT intake or Injen.

$1200 is for the GS400 and what is comparable with the SRT intake package.

I agree. Their customer serivce was total crap after I wanted to return their product. The foam material is way too porous and the emission tubes were not welded. They suck ***.

Soooo, bro..

Tell us how you really feel?? hehehehehe. Well, i sure do appreciate the input.. Gotta love this message board/club. I guess I will decide on a stock airbox. But one other Q... what's the diference between a $1200 intake and a $250 intake??? Just have questions about that because when I inquired about this at a shop.... I was quoted the latter... somone on here told me the intake was about $1200..... Help me out someone??
