just because you guys cant understand why the intake cost so much, doesnt mean everyone on the board has to be like "OMG!! 1800! OMG! wtf!? are you stupid?!"
most high end JDM intakes are 900-3200 dollars
reasons:
they are dry carbon and weigh absolutely nothing
they are sexy as all hell
they are rare
they are made to extract the most power from the car. So you're paying for that extra little bit. Every little bit counts and every pound of weight off the car counts.
plus for 1800, im pretty sure it came with the carbon cooling tray
carbon isnt cheap
AT LEAST FOR THE EVO YOU GET POWER GAINS!
carbon intakes for the s2000 are just as expensive and have 1-5hp gains
lol

One one side I'd like to say that it's about par for the cost of it because even the JDM powerchamber box setup is like 1200 bucks.
But on the other side, 25 whp isn't the same as what a FP green/red could do and there less then 2 Grand...so Idk lol just food for thought
