ARC acutally isnt grabbing cold air : ( on hot days i feel like putting my stock box back on seriously... the exposed panel is like 10cm away from my headers... under the hood

yeah the real stuff is the best i sell it but it is bloody expensive mugen air boxes can go up to $2000 for an S2000.

i don;t think paying about 1k for a mugen air box is worth it.
i know its different but i reckon u should go for an HKS pod or the HKS suction kit.
