That looks like it is easier to install in the engine bay than mine was. That guy parks like a jackass. He's not driving a Ferrari.

You probably have a better chance of it getting scratched parking like that than not. People don't like to see other people park like that and often may screw with your car b/c of it. There have been threads on this board where people did that before and then had their cars vandalized b/c of it. If you choose to park like that, watch out.

Very true. how bout parking in the empty lot where there aren't any cars around for 20 yds or so. you know at the big shopping centers, theres always an empty lot because its too far from the shopping entrance.

Just installed mine yesterday, and boy was that a pain in the ***. Pulling everthing out was very easy. Installing this intake and getting it lined up so it does not rub anything is hard as hell. Took me an hour to just align this thing. This was far from my first intake install, but was very tiring on my patience. If you dont have time, patience or have never done anyting like this before, I do not recomend it. Pay some one else to do it so you dont F-UP your car. The intake sounds quiet during normal accelartion, but at WOT this thing screams @ VTEC. Performance is improved in throttle responce and a lil more HP and TQ. A good $200 mod.

Any pics of the install, I want to see if the intake leaves a giant whole in the engine bay like the rsx. Did you have to relocate anything?
