Weapon R , secret or dragon intake

I have a 2004 TB G35 coupe and was looking into ordering a new intake system, from what information I have gathered so far, the weapon r intakes seem to produce a good sound and performance, but what are your thoughts, weapon r secret or dragon intake?
I'm looking for top notch performance and quality(loud) sound.

This is a hotly debated topic, but I'm throwing in my vote for the R2C. Great filter, looks great, same price as a popcharger, good sound, and seals against the hood to help prevent heat soak.

doesn't really matter what intake you get you will be gaining basically nothing. if you want to be true to performance go with a popcharger or better yet a stillen or even better stock. but other than that just choose what you like the looks of and what sounds good to you. i went with the popcharger personally and ive been very pleased by it

it seems the secret is more expensive and has a thicker foam then the dragon, so it comes down to the sound for me... hmmm

Just recall people saying (this was yeaaaaars ago mind you) that weapon r was a bs brand that made low quality products. I never really paid attention to the brand (would usually go with more well know brands) but I remember seeing a few of their ads in super street magazines when I was younger lol. To each their own.
