since the arc doesnt come with piping, would it be ok to use fujita piping with the arc induction box? would the combo make a better gain? or is it even possible?

From what I understand it comes with piping, That's why its $800 instead of the usual $4-500. I guess Ill have to see when I get it.

it's just paying money for the name.. sure you get the status of purchasing a huge brand name for JDM lovers, but $800 is just too ridiculous for an intake that does have show for it, but no go..

I think it's too early to say this intake has "no go". I'll be sure to dyno it once it's installed.
