fits straight on

as far as aem and injen goes, i am a injen guy all the way, i have felt a aem and an injen on a 3.0 my buddy has a aem for an accord so we swapped one day, both are shortys, we got a more of a response from a butt dyno from the injen than the aem, it had a little bigger hummmmmm......but it had more power to our testing.

as far as the throttle body spacer.....or helix power tower, casper how much did you pay for this? i tried to call ross today but they never seem to pick up the phone let me know cause im down to get a GB going if the price is right and it looks like a lot of peps want it

pm me and let me know with the details
