Yes my friend, I have haha! I ended up getting a Weapom-R SRI for less than another from a more popular company that I forgot. Plus is looks way cooler than the traditionals, black and grey with these mean prongs on the air entrance. Its wicked looking, and they claimed 7-10 hp increase I think, which is more than usual. I dont believe that much, especially on the 4g94 engine which apparently doesnt respond too well to these small aftermarket upgrades. But its really good, especially pulling out of the street off mine onto the main road. When I gun it from that stop sign, it sounds great. Going from 1 to 5+ rpms, its roaring. So sound wise great. I can feel a difference in power too, but its not overwhelming. It was easy to put in too. And since its cheaper, it all worked out.

Now the WeaponR is bigger than traditional so You may have to move somethings, just like a few millimeters. Like my battery was able to slide over in its holding case so I jammed it to one end to make room. And my stupid horn is in the stupidest spot which also cause issues with my new lights, so the brackets holding it up or whatever they are, theyre pretty messed up now, cause I just bent the horn in the direction I wanted...which was down lol. But it works! Its all good. Should I post some pics here for you? Or make another post in the show and shine?

fact a/t are bigger than m/t
fact piping from m/t cai from k&n/aem, as an example, wont fit in a a/t w/o some adj and relocation of parts. ie the lower piping

the only way is to get a custum pipe made that goes from the maf down to the front bumper where it sits on normaly if you had a m/t cai setup..

i know the piping wont work cause i have a aem cai setp and the lower piping fails to get around the 02-06 lancers a/t.. mine just runs with a short ram and thats only part i care of cause thats where thy look for the legal mumbo jumbo
