I think it looks pretty good, almost 'stockish' looking. :)

Hmm, if my Magnus ever cracks I'll have to look into one of these.

I think I would be willing to sacrifice 5-10lbs just for the durability.
Unless your shooting a ton of N20 you don't have to worry about JMF intakes.
The best way to go faster is to lighten the load.

Stronger but also heavier than a SMIM.
I don't see this as being anything worthwhile to think about as even the stock intake feels like it weights next to nothing IMO. I'd go with the Hawver, a better intake is worth a couple extra pounds. But you can feel the acceleration difference when you take out your floormats I'm sure....

Get rid of your turbo cause look at how much weight that adds.

Don't be a dumb ass, you sound like a little bitch with statements like that. That intake probably makes no more power than my JMF and my JMF is lighter.
every pound counts when you want to go fast
If it didn't super cars wouldn't have exotic light wieght metals used in thier construction. Racecars wouldn't have carbon fiber and aluminum seats or plastic windows.
Removing wieght is the #1 way to make your car faster, handle better, and stop quicker.

You're the one who sounds like the little whiney bitch. Big fucking deal it's probably 5 lbs heavier. How about you give your self a break and go fuck your JMF intake for a change, you sound in love with it.
Not to mention I'm sure your JMF intake is a lot more expensive than this cast mani...

Nope, this one is $550, the JMF is $590. JMF is 7.5 lbs, this one probably isn't much over 10.
Anyway, I like the cast look, more sleeper than a shiny SMIM, would look good in flat black.

+1, you're the one wining about how heavy the intake is. Race barefoot and naked why don't you, it'll save weight (the same amount or more than the difference in intakes).

Yeah, and that's why my wife's Escort is so fast & stops so quickly, especially compared to my heavy Eclipse.
If having a light car is so important to you, why start with such a heavy ass car, get a Honduh instead.

How about you guys stop "fighting" over an intake manifold.

if you shed 5 pounds in a car that runs a flat 13 second 1/4 that weighs 3000 pounds
you should be able to run 12.999792
an improvment of .000208
just throwing that out there, all theoretical of course
