IS-F is well worth the money, you buy that so you don't have to build (=

My buddy got one in California and took me for a ride, jesus that thing is sweet.

The AF is fine at idle, the stock ecu still controls idle and does not talk to KPro. KPro has idle controls but they don't work for the TSX. I know they are testing out a solution right now.

Have you driven/been in an IS-F? Ridiculous nice.. But it is a little pricey.
ooh..evo has always been one of my fav cars. New body style is very aesthetically pleasing as well. Love the kitted look on it.

havent been in the is-f.. just the 350.. i liked it. but i wanna test drive others.. i just dont feel 56K is really worth 100HP difference between that and the regular 350..

God I know, my friend who bought one was telling me that with intake and exhaust they each add about 20hp gains to the car, it's already pretty damn quick.

I just think the features in the car are badass. Stock intake sounds so sweet at 3500 RPM.

20k extra for 100hp more base models plus crazy amounts of potential..i say worth it. Plus when you get everythin the is-F has on a 350, its only like a 10k difference..LOL

I just hate the whole 217 to 26 drive...and coppers out on 26 are pigs..a lot worse than others. Tho I have lost respect for all of them ever since I got tailed by one for 20 miles a few months ago.
