what intake are you planning on putting in it? whatever it is don't buy a weapon-r intake there garbage i had one and it wreaked the car. it ran fine for a good month or so then all of a sudden it seemed like the car lost all its power. i looked at the problem as a fuel issue it wasn't. what really happened is when they design these intakes for cars they need to make sure the cars computer will accept the part, which on mazda's weapon-r intakes mess the computer up. Import tuner explains it better than i can but basicly it came down to the computer re-maping the fuel trim and it cut the amount of fuel the car was allowed. worst thing i have ever bought.
