The secret is that they are really Shitty! Stick with INJEN or any of the vendors intakes on the forums. Qaulity and WeaponR don't even belong in the same sentence....the last thing that I can think of is that was xomplete crap was there EVO motor mount dampener...yeah it was so poorly built it would just bust in half. Stay away from garbage products. Also stay away from the AEM SRI also that thing is a heaping pile of poo too. If you ever wanted to upgrade to a real BOV it won't fit due to the weird ass filter location of the AEM filter/tubing assembly.
I personally like the fitment and the quality of the INJEN SRI, it seems to fit very nicely and just looks damn sexy in black.

right... which bov is 'real'.
There are so many little falicies to that argument its not funny. There are three variables that are present. The intake, bov, adn up-pipe. So how about you just say that you set up doesn't fit instead of ripping on aem.
Lol. Seriously, mark. Every aftermarket manufacturer out there can't ensure fitment with every other manufacturer.
If you're running the stock turbo, ANY BOV is just a noisemaker, as the stock recirc valve works flawlessly...and don't even think about using the 'it leaks so I need to spend $300 on a noisemaker that doesn't leak' argument..this isn't a DSM
Big turbo? Yea. Get a 'real' BOV. Good luck getting the Mopar noisemaker to worth with a big turbo anyway . Oh, and if you have a big turbo, with your big real BOV, you won't need to worry about your AEM SRI interfering with it since it won't fit without modification.
Not rippin on ya mark..just covering the bases before the n00bs come in and start arguing shit thats been argued into the ground years ago

Really man, I am in a pretty good mood so I am not gonna break you in.
The AEM sri is an awful design, nothing against the company since all of their products are top notch. But their intake for our car was not engineered with the ingenuity that we are used to from AEM. It doesn't take a genius to build an intake that would facilitate a aftermarket BOV assembly on the UHP. When you visually look at the AEM sri system you....really look at it you will understand what I am saying. Again not trying to be a dick, but don't come at me with noob shit that we already know sucks....
i have the hks and the aem sri and it easily fits fits. I can not see any fitment issues. Maybe you should take it up the company you got your up pipe from. Actually aem makes a pretty good unit. I was surprised how they dealt with the solenoids.

Totally true, I like that design aspect, so I agree with you on that. BTW, I don't have the AEM. I took a very close look at PT's AEM intake and noticed the fitment issues that people have been having problems with. AGP all the way for me.
Also stay away from the AEM SRI also that thing is a heaping pile of poo too. If you ever wanted to upgrade to a real BOV it won't fit due to the weird ass filter location of the AEM filter/tubing assembly.
Thats not correct.
What is correct, is that the AEM SRI will fit with any bov / uppipe as long as it faces the bov to the front of the car. If you get the AGP uppipe which faces the bov upwards (only one on the market that I know of that does that!) it will not fit. So, if you get the Weapon R uppipe, Exhaust Depot hardpipe, Atp uppipe, etc you can use a AEM SRI.
wait! the agp pipe puts the bov up? We could not get it to fit with it up so we have it on backwards. Now it is hanging under the car. I thought it was way retarded. It still is with it facing up but now at least we wont have to worry about the bov getting knocked off.

WOW
Reason?????????? Making since??????? Thought out????????? I can't believe i seen this posted on srtforums. j/k
I like the way you think man.
Every time i hear about a "real" BOV that some one puts on there srt4 (stock turbo) i just laugh my azz off. What would have been "real" is for aftermarket companies to do a little r&d (like mopar, and AGP did) and offer a BOV that didn't requre $300+ to work. Engineering is not just about performance but also price. In this case using the stock valve is better on both fronts.
Aftermarket companies are not out to tell you what you have works fine, but instead to make you believe that for some reason what your car allready has is not as good as what you can buy from them. Hard pipes for exsample. Some of the fastest privatly owned cars use the stock intercooler pipes. There is nothing wrong with them, they are not flawed. This goes for a lot of parts on the stock srt4. Don't buy into the advertising or bashing.
Just my thoughts.

everyone has a reason for doing something. I bought a hks with my stock turbo because i like it. for you guys to sit and bash people for doing such a thing is rediculous. I do not take offense to those comments by the way i am just arguing to maybe get a point across. I got the hks because i wanted one from the day i had a turbo car. It didn't work out on my last car so i splurged and got one. I am sure there are many instances that anyone who makes the argument that a bov is stupid, has done something in their past that is just as 'stupid'. like maybe a better digital camera or computer when the one they had is just fine. There could be many examples for this.
alright all...wasn't really looking to start a flame contest over BOV positioning and incompatibility w/ other aftermarket items...just asking about WeaponR's intake systems...you know, that nice little noise-making tube that draws wonderful, cooler, more condensed air into the manifold...nothing too complicated...but thanks for the feedback on other things...

And i think that it is very cool that your car is done the way you want it.
But when people go around saying things like "get a real BOV" and try and say they gained performance from it that is not true. If you like other BOV's, 20 inch rims, 6" intakes, 24" fart can exhaust and stuff that is great, that is what makes the car world so great, but some people believe they make more power or eliminated a "problem" with something that worked fine.
