If you’re looking to give your Mazda RX-8 a serious boost, the Weapon-R Dragon Intake System might just be what you need. I’ve seen these intakes in action across various racing scenes, and let me tell you, they’ve earned a solid reputation for a reason. They even snagged the title of "Best Overall Performer" in a recent Tuner Performance Report, outshining both cold air and short ram intakes. That’s no small feat!
What’s cool about these intakes is the craftsmanship. They’re made from 6061 aluminum, CNC mandrel bent, and hand TIG welded. This means you’re getting a proper seal and a fit that’s spot on. Each system is tuned specifically for your engine’s displacement and airflow needs, so it’s like they were made just for your ride. You’ll notice the difference in performance, trust me.
Now, let’s talk about the Dragon Filter that comes with this system. It’s not just any filter; it’s designed to maximize airflow while keeping dirt out. Made from high-density polyurethane foam, it’s been shown to allow up to 80% more air through compared to traditional cotton filters. Plus, the velocity stack that’s been CAD designed and flow bench tested really helps amp up the air volume going into your engine. More air means better performance, and who doesn’t want that?
This intake system is available in a polished finish that looks sharp under the hood. And for those of you concerned about regulations, many applications are CARB approved. Installation is a breeze too, with everything you need included in the box.
Additional Information:- CARB approved for many applications
- Reusable open pore high-density foam filter
- High-polished aluminum piping
- Complete installation kit included
This setup is specifically designed for the 2003-2008 Mazda RX-8, so you know it’s going to fit just right. If you’re ready to take your RX-8 to the next level, check out the installation instructions here.
