a friend of mine has one for sale for $400 and im debating on it..pending what evom guys think of it,results etc..

Go with Buschur no questions asked. Lot of people are making so much power on ported one plus no need to worry about cracking. If you don't have a ported head, do that as well if you can, that should help you along with the intake manifold.

Maybe stock one doesnt look good as much as an aftermarket one but it surely works well and better.

 

i would go with a stock ported one and just spend the extra money on something else

but i'm sure a sheet metal intake manifold with veloscity stacks will make more power than a stock ported one

 

honestly i think the weapon R was proven to lose power. thats why they are going for 200 on the boards

 

Yeah Id say stay away

 

Do not touch it. I had one and it cracked. Was replaced and welds cracked again. Just junk.

 

thanks guys....was jw,wasnt serious about it.

heart was set on buschur ported....its proven

really want the AMS VSR but i dont have $1100 to just dump on that...

 

^^ agreed the ams vsr is soooo nice but a little pricey

 

Ok, so here's my data (ok, technically it's someone else's data):

Where's yours?

 

Nice this is the first time I've ever seen or heard about the Weapon R intake manifold. Anyone else have a real first hand experience with this manifold?

 

There were some quality problems IIRC. However, I think the issues are solvable with some TLC.


I don't know if I'd buy a new one, however, I may purchase a used one if one shows up

 

damn that thing looks like a pan of ****.

 

Really?

at least all 4 runners are of the same length vs. oem. let alone that the air-horns are of a decent design, albeit a small eliptical flare, but very effective....much better than the mitsu hurdles that are placed within the oem plenum..

i have seen far uglier intake (dyno dev. only) set-ups make great power on the dyno.

i look forward to putting my weapon-r, rewelded, fluffed & buffed manifold on my evo & conduct some logs.

i agree, this manifold is nowhere near as sexy as the ams unit, but i feel the weapon-r manifold will get the job done within the rpm range that i plan on twisting my oem rod bolted engine along with my fp-grn.....i cant wait...but have too

 

Weapon R was never known for making great products based on what I saw for parts when I owned an integra.

 

Speaking of intake manifolds, what about the Magnus one, I think Vboy has or had the Magnus at one point. What are the numbers on that Manifold?
