i cannot comment much because i'm not a customer of Jason. From what I know, RISK itself is more effective than any cold air intake set up I've done before

I tested Bro Nakshire's car today too...It certainly felt like the car was zooming effortlessly. I might be exagerrating, but my Picanto is stock, so I very swaku. Usually my car will take some time to accelerate up. But on his car, I use the same accelerating pressure, and before I manage to realise, I have to change up my gear. Honestly I was quite shocked, but I kept quiet and never tell bro Nakshire. WAH LAO I ALSO WANT THIS R.I.S.K setup leh. Can pass inspection right?

Doing air intakes won't fail the inspection.. Anything to do with exhaust will.. It's very common for cats to have different air intake setup such as open pods..

with the rainy season coming ahead, is RISK setup tested in heavy downpour before? Is the intake take in water and wet the air filter? if doing half risk, don't have to worry coz the air intake is not affected.. Don't worry about air intakes getting wet.. There are so many cars in sg that is fitted with cold air intake systems.. Saw a few with their air intake ducts at the foglight position..

Monday will be my turn to install risk. Looking forward to it.

Mine's a pre F/L pica! Got my half setup done, all I can say is it's really impressive. Now with air-con on is like previously with air-con off... Haven't tried longer distance so more review will come later.
Thanks to Roy for his invention, it's almost like I'm driving a new car now :-D
Nice to meet with bro Kelvin and bro picanyeo

I just met up with Picantroy, picankoch and cliuc for the risk installation. And I must say, I'm impressed.. The pulling effect is there and it has really exceed my expectations. Not to mention it's coming from an auto pica.
I look forward to my turn on Monday..

Tried on CTE just now...... R.I.S.K definitely shines on expressways much more than normal roads, the difference is even more obvious.... Side note: When I whizzed past a BMW 5-series in middle lane (unintentionally, not trying to be funny), think he felt 'threatened' or not happy, zoomed off after that... hahaha maybe he was surprised!

Yesterday i met with bro Roy and Kelvin at yishun blk 296A MSCP in the evening and i am very impressed at Roy's genius and also very grateful for their patience and goodwill for sharing so much about risk setup. Furthermore, bro Kelvin gladly gave me a ride nearby to show me the coolest demo in his powerful ride. Woah...i tell u the feeling of the power is sibei song...i am speechless...never experience this before in a pica. Thanks for the sharing bros...i really appreciate it. Now i just cannot wait to get my half setup with fan install in my auto pica.

Hi polo, Naturally, theirs will be more powerful compared to auto due to transmission losses. But wait till u sit in an auto ride with risk.. Then you realized how much power can an auto give..

I think the fan maintains the backpressure of the throttle body.. Just like when auto change from stock airbox to open pod, you experience loss in low end and the loss is more compared to manual rides.. I feel that it is through this backpressure thing that keeps the auto ride from losing it's low end.. This is my opinion. Better let the right persons to give the answer..

Hi bro Kelvin Where will be the simota fan install at? Can to share y auto car may require the fan to enhance the performance? Patiently waiting for my turn..... a simple answer to ur question is: auto can't drag gear like manual. thus, tis simota fan will create a turbulence air into e throttle body. giving more power. hope tis simple explaination is easy to understand as most of us r laymen.

bro decentboi, both SJCAI and RISK are intake systems.
However, they have totally different concepts, which caters to different group of people.
We cannot tell you which is better, but it will be best that you have your own butt dyno to make your personal comparison. like that more fair to your pocket... haha

Just a serious qn. What happened when it rains and flood? No one mentioned anything leh... RISK set up got two air intake inlet, one at the bumper and the other in the engine bay where the filter is. During heavy downpour, water will go into the air scoop but will not travel up the air hose cause air is being push in and not suck in by the engine vacuum. It is impossible for the water to be push that high up the air hose. For safety, there are holes at the bottom of the air hose and scoop to drain out any water. Flood, if the water is up to bumper height and cover the entire air intake hole, your engine will still run, at this point air is being taken in from the air intake inlet at the filter there. So to say, you can even drive through flood if the water is not up to your engine height. Happy swimming. One more thing to note. If the water is up to your exhaust....no car can survive that.

Thanks for your detailed explanation! Starting to see some visuals in my brains. So by doing full, bumper must cut hole? Can explain abit on half and full? Thanks.

Half setup needs to use back your stock air intake inlet. Half setup is w/o air scoop, air funnel & air hose connecting to air funnel. If w/o ur stock air intake inlet, can't do half. Power is ard 3/4 of full setup. Auto ride is best to install e additional simota fan as they can't drag gear like manual rides.
Hope tis info helps. Cheers!
