Default AEM V2 in 2002 CRV

So, I am aware there are options for CRV specific air intakes, but I picked up an AEM V2 for a good deal off of an RSX owner who was boosting his K20A2. I still have the original K24A1 in my 2002 CRV with 230,000 miles on it, but was confident that I could make it fit. Turns out it's not that difficult. Just had to extend the wiring on the air temperature sensor, and replace the vacuum line, and the 3/4 hose that connect to the intake. I spent some time heating up and bending the mounting bracket, but couldn't get it where I wanted it, so I might just add an extension to it, but it doesn't seem necessary. I am surprised by the results. It seems like the vehicle is more responsive, and pulls harder after 3,000 rpm, but it might just be my ears playing tricks on me, as WOT sounds a lot better now, with a nice growl from underneath the hood.
