Don't waste your money on it, more show then go. And I would not get an intake if you don't have any cam or cams yet.

not even show, its ugly IMO, and a guy on honda-tech got one for free, and tested it, and he had to have the runners chopped and rewelded becasue they were to long and hit the firewall, a sensor wouldnt fit right, and a mount hole was off, the flange sucked. Go with a y8 intake manifold or skunk 2.

Someone on another board I go to had one. Said it sucked and took it off. The holes and stuff on it don't match right to sensors and all that stuff. Its a piece of crap. OBX

Increases air flow to the engine, which if you don't have better cams your not gonna really see a gain.
