I decided to go out and snap a few shots of my "intake" setup after seeing Asahi's post about intake gains/losses. George Knighton brought up the same point I meant to make about the whole throttle response thing. That's the main idea behind this setup. It never made it to the dyno, but I can "feel" the throttle response a heck of a lot more compared to an older short ram setup and even compared to stock. Anyway, the car isnt an R, so don't flame.










Completely sealed off from the hot air in the engine bay.







The last three pictures are just to illustrate the fitment of the K&N E-2427 drop in for integras. I was a little disappointed with how it fit in the last picture, as I thought it wouldnt seal as well as the stock one did using the rubber seal, but it seals up perfectly.

I also wanted to add that I have been running this setup on the street for about 8 months now and I haven't had a single problem. I get paranoid around police because I'm missing the front part of my turn signal, but I doubt they'll notice it now, if they haven't already.
