I plan on purchasing a Weapon-R Dragon Intake and Vibrant front strut brace. Does anyone have any expereience/issues with either of these two products?
I recently had a MaxSpeed Cat Back system installed and it sounds great!

No experience with the intake and brace, but do you have any clips of the exhaust?

No, I haven't taken any, but I will and post them or forward them.

The Weapon-R intake is a "warm air" intake and does not eliminate the restrictive resonator box on top of the throttle body. In other words, it is of the poorest designs available for your application. Look into the Induction Dynamics CAI - it is the best design available for the 2.4.
Also, in the future please do not cross-post the same topic into multiple sections. Thanks :)

Thanks for the info. How about something a little easier on my pocket?
Gator - Shoot me an email and I'll forward the exhaust photos - too large to post here.

Quality and doing things right are expensive.
Gotta pay to play

Doing things right is "not" always expensive. I want it done SMART, with the least amount of out of pocket!
It seems hard to find quality-low cost intakes for the 2.4l. They are all over the place for the GT's.

I understand what your saying but......
The problem is is modding a car and doing it correctly is expensive, its the classic saying "you get what you pay for". Cheaping out always ends up a disaster and your ride ends up being a pepboys special, believe me, you do not want that :lol:
