Default perfect present for bro

Hey whats up? Im lookin into buying something for my bros birthday. He drives a 4door 98 accord EX with manual transmision. I thought about a short shifter, but I think I want to get him an intake. Wuts a nice affordable intake system that will produce a rich, deep sound outa that accord?? I know wuts up on civics but not too familiar on accords. Any oppinions? Thanks much

intakes r all generally the same..it shudnt vary much from a civic to an accord...as u porb know, or dont know...on the street, a $200+ intake is not much better then a cheap ebay pipe with a good filter(i.e. K&N) so i think u shud drop the intake idea and buy him that short shifter instead ...but if u really do wunna get him an intake, and if u really love him..get him the AEM V12

Very thoughtful, and surprisingly refreshing.
Thanks for the brief respite.

Regards

a short delay


and to correct P_adams, all you need to say is " thanks for the respite "
saying " brief respite " is being redundant


how much are you looking to spend on your brother?
how about getting him a nice shift ****? spoon **** maybe?
maybe a decent front and/or rear strut bar?

Hey man, I would go and grab him a short shifter. You might see a tiny bit of more performance if any with a intake, but they do sound real nice. http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/prod/ASA6002

Strut and sway bar improved my car more than intake or exhaust ever did...
