I would take that Weapon R out and put the stock intake back in. The factory intake is a cold air intake, buy going to a short ram you are losing HP by sucking in hot air. this will be a lot worse if you ever track your car or do a canyon run in hot weather. Keep the factory setup, just delete the VFAD and walls in the box if you want a "cool" sound.
And if you are thinking of a Turbo kit then you have a lot of reading to do because there are not many tuning options available. A custom kit would require a lot of time and money so do your homework. We can always use a welder so keep checking the boards and stop by when you can. I actually need a clutch pedal bracket welded
Look for the thread, it's a good drive and can be hard on the car depending on how your drive so if you are having problems I don't recommend it. But a stock 8 that is properly maintained can do it all day everyday. Just make sure you give it a good once over. I had my ride brake down a few trips ago do to a busted AC belt and it is not fun way out there

I just had my engine replaced with one with 19k miles. And all I have is a k&n typhoon intake, a header, a straight pipe, mazsport ignition, and the tb coolant bypass. You think I could hang? =) (everything else is purely cosmetic!)
