On Weapon R's site the airbox and cold intake is $360.00

Also I read somewhere that this set up yields about 13 HP.

Let me testdrive your M3 and you will be sure that I'll rush into a BMW dealer.

Not sure if I have some extra cash around as a bodykit is currently processing underground.
RA...

You know, once you get the bodykit, you're gonna want rims that fit well

Brent,

Yeah, I know and that's why I try to keep an eye on the rims also.

The Weapon R is already a little bit quieter than the SRT intake. I know because I have had both.

With the Cold Air box, you basically remove almost all the noise since it's the filter area that makes the most intake noise and it's enclosed in a box...

I'd say remove the SRT ECU, put on the new WR intake with Cold Air Box and my bet is you can't tell the performance differences IMHO...

Brent
Are you saying the SRT intake is slower than the Weapon-R intake even without the WR ecu?

Before you dyno, is your car tuned (re: Ikon's post, hehe)? Will you be dynoing with the stock air box with a clean stock air filter and stock ecu? Stock ECU with WR intake? WR ECU with WR intake?

Is the Weapon R cold air box sold seperately? I also see why this CAB would not work with the SRT intake set up...

**Also BananaGS is right a CAB can be made easily... If so desired..
