Default First Mod done to my car, APC

I finally got my first paycheck yesterday, and i ran out to Advanced Auto parts and baught APC Intimidator Air Intake .
I am glad with my results, I like it because it has a nice deep tone, and it doesnt really open up all the way when you are normally driving. It is a nice sleeper and i can feel a boost in the power
specially when the VTEC kicks in .
I am very glad with my results and i give a to APC.

You couldve paid 1/2 or even 1/3rd of that money for a no-name intake on ebay or a used one here.

Just giving you flame bro Nah seriously though stick with Honda-Tech you'll learn quite a bit and know what mods will gain the most hp out of your car. Intake is probably one of the easiest. G'luck.

Boosting cars is a really bad thing to do. but I'm pretty sure you didn't mean it THAT way. &gt;_&lt;

Being your car is an automatic 4 door, i'd get exterior stuff instead. Nice suspension, wheels, front lip, etc.
