No. They ALL claim to increase horsepower. Get an Ebay pipe and a velocity stack.

You can get a K&N filter for it.

You should read this if you haven't.

I did search some infor. The velocity stack really smooth the air flow. but most is a long pipe and the velocity stack. above picture you can see the C.fiber Air Ram is bigger then smaller again to the intake. if it plus the velocity stack will it be gain hp or the straight pipe is the smoothest air flow?

the picture is current i'm using. if add the stack flow will be ok too?

No. That is about the worst intake you could be running right now.

Could it be worse than stock? Man I thought the air ram bigger will allow more air in to intake. So just a simple straight pipe and velocity stack that's it?

Might as well just keep what you have. All these cheap things you're looking to do are a waste of money.

It won't make a damn bit of appreciable difference. get a $10 pipe, k&n filter, and be done. There is no magic combo of intake/filter that will net you an appreciable power gain unless there is also air being forced above atmospheric pressure down you're engines dirty mouth.

It's all BS. If you want more power boost the engine or swap it out with a bigger one. All these things you keep posting about are absolute wastes of money and are designed to get people like you salivating and opening your wallets. None of these bolt-ons make any real power. I don't care what anyone in the Honda community tells you or what you see an anyone's funky online articles or fanboy magazines, you may HEAR a difference but you CANNOT FEEL IT and it DOESN'T MAKE YOU ANY FASTER. If you think that you actually will feel 10 horsepower and 5 ft-lbs of torque then you are delusional. You'll get your eyes opened when you slap all that stuff on, stage up next to a Prius, and it leaves you cold at the line. I don't care if i comes from Japan or Mars, don't waste your money on it.
