If you're looking to give your Acura TL Type-S a serious boost, the Weapon-R Dragon Intake System is where it's at. This isn't just any intake; it's been put through the wringer in racing circles around the globe. The buzz? It's been called the "Best Overall Performer" in the 2003 Tuner Performance Reports, and for good reason. It outshines both cold air and short ram intakes, making it a solid choice for those who want real performance gains.
What sets this intake apart is its construction. We're talking about CNC mandrel bent piping made from 6061 aluminum, hand TIG welded for that perfect seal and fit. Each unit is meticulously tuned to match your engine's displacement and airflow needs, ensuring that you're getting the most out of your ride. It's all about maximizing performance, and this intake system does just that.
And let’s not forget about the Dragon Filter. This isn't your run-of-the-mill filter; it's designed to let in maximum airflow while keeping dirt at bay with its high-density polyurethane foam. Studies show that it can flow up to 80% more air compared to conventional cotton filters. Plus, it features a velocity stack that’s been CAD designed and flow bench tested, which means it’s engineered to push more air into your engine, giving you a noticeable performance boost.
This intake system comes in a slick polished finish that not only looks great under the hood but also reflects the quality of the materials used. Everything you need for a clean installation is included, so you won’t be scrambling for parts when it’s time to put it in.
Additional Information:
- Many applications are CARB approved, so you can rest easy if you're in a regulated area.
- Features a reusable open pore high-density foam filter.
- High-polished aluminum piping that looks as good as it performs.
- Comes with everything needed for a straightforward installation.
This particular intake fits the 2001-2003 Acura TL Type-S models, along with some other Acura models like the CL from 1997 and 2001-2003. If you want to dive deeper into the installation process, CLICK HERE for the instructions.
