I installed the RB Filter and canister yesterday after i stripped the rats nest.....

It looks good and when the secondaries open up the sound is nice.......

The sound is awesome. I get the same kinda sound with the bonez intake (www.rx7.com), and it's cheaper than the RB setup.....

but of course it wasn't enough for me to just mod the stock intake, so now I'm switching to the ISCRacing intake, which I think is a cool look too. Yeah, it's more expensive, but I believe the RB one doesn't even come with the filter, this one has a K&N (like I need another one!). It's going to be powdercoated the same colour as the rest of my intake, so it'll fit in really well

The RB is cool though :P

Yes rx7.com (corrected)

Bonez: http://www.rx7.com/store/rx7/saintake.html

ISC: http://www.iscracing.net/air_fuel.htm

And we've all seen the RB now

The filter would add hp, even if you run a stock carb?
