hated secret weapon-r installed

98 2.3 with secret weapon

I had to move the battery to leave room for the filter. The car sounds good, and the extra pickup is very noticable, from low rpm/gears to high rpm/gears.

I will report if I get significant better mpg.

funny

I saw other intake installs without pics, and the first replies were the same....I really just wanted to make sure that weapon-r and secret weaon would come up in a search for intakes. They would know it is not a perfect fit, but they could just turn the battery sideways to make it fit, and that there is a good power increase as well as good sound.

at the moment I dont have a camera anyway...a friend borrowed my D70, and since his sister and friend died...he hasnt got around to getting back to me ....i think i will give him a little slack on this one though

hmm... im not a fan of moving the battery around too much... make sure its being held securely man. Dont want it to tip over and have batt. acid leaking everywhere.

Who said anything about it being sealed? Is it an Optima battery? If not, bad news if it does start leaking...

thanks for the concern...the way it is laying, the plastic mount secures it on one side, and the metal bar is screwed in where the air filter screw was to secure on the other side....it cant move forward when the hood is down, and it cant move very far back cause of the intake and the battery cable

ill try to get a pic in when I can

Woe LL, you hater... not every one is so internet savy as you. LOL jmwy, I know you can't help it.


cnorwood, maybe I'll see you down there. I was gonna fly, but I would rather drive... If the University will let me do that, not been in this job long, and I've only traveled for them localy (in state). The center I was talking about is the middle building on the north austin complex near a place called Jollyville, or something like that.

Anyway, peace out.
