I bought a 90-93 accord intake like a couple people suggested on another post and i got it today....wasnt really what i was expecting..i thought it was 2 pipes but mine came in 1...so i took everything out of the box..they gave me the pipe the filter and all the clamps i needed...took out the old box..cut the pipe to fit..n these are the results:
   dont know how much HP more its giving me... proably like 3-5...i do feel a nice difference though an she screams up stairs

I got into an arguement with one of my mechanics a couple weeks ago that almost made me fire him.
He was convinced that regardless of a bypass valve the car would immediately hydrolock if it was raining hard enough or we hit a puddle. I would normally let him go on his rants but he had a kid there he was preaching to who just bought a fifth gen and seemed inspired by my plans to go ahead and put his all into his car. And he looked kinda down when Milo said a CAI was a bad idea anywhere but the track. Yeah, it may not be as safe as a SRI, but seriously the likelihood of even getting submerged that deep isnt very high. At least around here. --------------------  |
