It is. Here's the link http://www.advancespeedshop.com/fuel...5-p-15198.html

Top Fuel was pretty famous with Honda back in late '90s

how does this differ from any other intake available for the IS?
i know even if there is a difference in gains, its so minimal that I wont be able to feel anything at all. But I still want to know how this might compare to any other intakes like fujita or F sport.. how would this sound because the design is slightly different as well

you're better off buying that tornado for cheeper and sticking it in a joez pipe... if you want that swirling effect...

MSRP: $260.00
You Save: $190.00 (73%)
Our Price: $70.00


that should tell you alot right there.

As far as I'm concerned, there is NO compression happening. They have a smaller diameter pipe connected to a larger chamber back down to the same exact size smaller diameter pipe. The only thing thats happening is induced turbulence.

snake oil, my friends.

this site sells things pretty cheap, even the H&R springs are only 220. I can't find it cheaper anywhere else.

@someboy - yeah thats what i thought too, and i dont really care as long as it doesnt take away HP cause all intakes for the 2IS are just for sound anyway. Just wanted to share with you guys and get some opinions =]

Has anyone or if you know someone who has bought this Top Fuel intake system for our 2genIS can chime in on some reviews? The intake looks to have decent quality at a very affordable price ($70-80) so I would like to know if it actually gains and the cons.

I know it'll be best if it came with a heat guard/shield to block the heat from the engine but it doesn't seem like it's manufacture that way.
