haha... modify the intake... I'd like to see what they come up with.

the APC civic intake I got had 2 vacuum ports perfect to work with stock carb vacuum set-up... with the open end filter it cost me 80 frikin bucks. and I ended up cuttin the intake in half. :(

the sound is way louder then the flipped lid or no filter at all.

Uh, I don't think Weapon R's filter suck. I had it in my car with my Matrix pipe and the filter worked better than the Matrix filter.
