Default Which intake??

I recently bought a 97 Civic EX Sedan and it seems a little sluggish so I was hoping to do some mods to gain some more horsepower. I was planning on starting with an air intake but can't decide which to get. It's between an Ingen, AEM, or Weapon R Secret. From what I have read the Weapon R Secret gives the highest HP gain of the three. Any info or suggestions on this would be much appreciated.

did you read that Weapon R gets the most HP from the ebay posting? LOL

Weapon R say they're the best because they're not. they want gullible people to fall for it

read the intake faq for some info. i would go with an aem, or any other crappy ebay tube with an aem dryflow filter

weapon r is good for the price, but i can only speak for aem as ive only had an aem, and its a great intake. not great gains, but theyre there.

i would definitely go with AEM, colors looks great, and it is carb legal. as of horsepower, dont expect one to be more noticeable than the others.

i had a weapon r sri w/ a k&n replacement filter in my old car. it's an ok upgrade,but compared to a full k&n typhoon sri that i have in my current ride, there is no contest. my other choice would be injen, either are great products. are you looking for cold air or short ram?
