Injen CAI for Type S
Are there any modifications needed to install an Injen CAI on an 02 Acura RSX Type S? Also, does anyone know of any good header/exhaust combination that allows you to keep the catalytic converter?

Re: Injen CAI for Type S (i-vtec-type s)
you dont have to modify anything to put on a cai it justs takes time like an hour: as for your exhaust header question i would go with a DC or comptech shorty header and HKS hi-power exhaust it makes good power and sounds awesome
good luck with your car!

Correct, a small hole will have to be cut in your fenderwell lining. Not a big deal, mine is about the size of a fist. Take your time and don't cut more than you need too.
Also, shorty headers are going to give you a max of 3-4 hp. I would go with a raceheader and swap it out when you are ready for emissions.
Or purchase a shorty header and use a test pipe to swap out for emissions. Or lastly, purchase a shorty header and get a carsound high flow cat and weld that in. The stock cat is EXTREMELY restrictive. I highly suggest you get rid of it, and if your worried about emissions go with a carsound high flow cat.
