They sell mostly Weapon R stuff, actually, this is where I got my Hyper Intake, WITH BLUE couplings (reducer sleeves), so they should be able to help you out.

It doesn't appear to be, but then again I can be wrong..

As far as short ram intakes go, this was definately the best looking. What was really cool, was that all of the coponents in the system was color-matched (I got a blue pipe, reducer sleeves, silicone hose and even filter) Yeah, the cone filter still uses a foam element like the Dragon, but I think it doesn't look as hokey (IMO). For a short ram though, it is definately a little pricey. But I'm happy with my purchase. I'll do a full review someday if my lazy *** permits it.

That's also why I wasn't sure on the hyper intake being that it looked like the cone might of been constructed of something other then foam.. Altough I can't see a point in changing when the company being Weapon-R is already known for their foam filters an stuff.
Whatever works though, If it's bring in air an running fine, no need to worry. Just keep an eye out for discinegration (sp?) of the filter as -you probally already know-
an all should be fine. 
excuse my language but why the hell are you people talking about intakes when i had asked the ? about strut bars.....do we all know the difference between a strut bar and a intake.....sorry to the people that responded about the strut bar but dam you people talking about intakes....sorry
Take it easy. The topic strayed. You'd be better off bringing up your original topic again than yelling at people for going off. You're more likely to get the desired result. I have to say though that the majority of people who would be getting strut bars probably have them already. I almost wish I'd waited so I could get a powder coated blue one, but I've already sprayed mine.

Yeah, relax. One of the traits of a living discussion is that it sometimes evolves into something else. If somebody needs my help, I'm not gonna tell them to kiss my *** because they're posting off topic. Sorry about going off-topic, now quit crying about it. If anybody cares, I'm going to wait for the blue anodized OBX strut brace because it matches some anodized accessories under my hood. There.

I've got the RMR strut bar. Had to get it through the dealer.
Purchased it from the dealer and installed myself.
Only thing I don't like is it makes slight contact with the hood in two spots. But other than that it definitly stiffens the car and makes it handle tighter.
RMR is based in Huntington Beach, CA.
I live just a few miles away and they would not let me buy and pick up from them. They told me I must use the dealer. I did not try to use the order line. From the way they made it sound I would doubt it for me because they want you to use one of the approx. 8 local mitsu dealers here in Southern California.
I can say they have been helpful and answered several questions for me. And all of their products have worked well to this point.

So I stumbled across this post, but have to actually find any OBX strut bars ANYWHERE. Does anybody have any up to date sites that sell OBX parts for the Lancer, namely strut bars?
