it won't improve the hp, it will just reduce the temperature of your IM, therefore on the street you won't loose all that power when your intake is cold instead of steaming hot. Colder air equals better power.

so it gives you hp back that you loose when IM gets hot.

why not put it on if you already have it?

like i said its a bitch to take the intake manifold off. it takes about almost 2 hours to take off cause you got to let the car cool down and so on and so on...

2 hours to take it off? Shouldn't take that long at all. I can take mine off and put it back on in less then an hour. Just look at it as experience and it wont be that hard.
Just make sure that the surfaces are clean and free of gasket material. Or you will have a leak and it will be all for nothing.

I put mine in the other day and it isnt that bad just do as the man says and clean both surfaces w/ acetone . plus you can reuse that one over and over . good luck! https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emsmilep.gif
