for all who bought the j's intake. would you do it again?
I know the horsepower increase is nominal but I have had b engines before and
that v-tec hit sounds great so I wondered if you felt the j's was a worth while purchase. I dont race just for my own enjoyment. thanks for responding.

No, I would definately not buy it again.
First of all it doesn't fit to well, and rubs all over the place:

Second, it have really poor performance when the engine gets warm, becuse it start sucking warm air. If you drive it in slow traffic, the engine would definatly bog down. The response and "tourque"-feeling was gone. And when it first have bog down it'll stay that way until you stop the car and cool it down over night.
So I sold it and bought an intake with a heatshield (which is a must in my book) ; Mugen. Never been happier.
