Sorry, fixed it.
2.2/2.3 apps are on their way. You can order now and you should get your parts about the same time everybody else gets them.

We will do anything up to 68mm, making it too large will stall the air flow and make it fall when you hit the throttle.

it looks like a quiet CAI should be your next part-- i've talked to some people and they all seem like they want some.. on this board a lot of the old farts (i'm a young fart) want the performance but the non-ricey sound.. IMO

Yeah, what do those parts do?

I just paid off my car and my warranty expired... I'm finally going to be able to save money for performance parts and not have to worry about jeopardizing my warranty. Hopefully by next spring I'll have a hooked up CL.

what is a intake manifold and a throttle body hahaha
ok sorry

well i am going to give in retard terms (for my own enjoyment dont take personal)

intake manifold is what is bolted to the head that the injectors goin and pas that comes the throttle body and your groovy AEM CAI connects to that and the perf parts will create more tork and hp abroad the RPM range i am sure

PM me your order(address, method of payment, what you want) and I'll reply when the part is ready to be shipped.
I'll give you my e-mail, address, and a tracking # just so you don't feel in danger of being ripped off OK?

ALL these parts are brand spankin' new and have been custom built specifically for our engines.
I will have pics of the bar as soon as the perfectionists I work with stop tinkering with it.
Trust me, it looks as good as it rides.

To put it in the simplest terms I can think of. . .the parts do this to your engine:
And makes the competition do this:

Seriously though, these parts allow for even more air flow to your engine a la intake, headers, etc.
We all know the best way to get raw power(w/out nos) is to get more air flowing to your main engine components. That's why everyone's first mod is usually an intake, it makes a big difference.

These parts make the most out of your engine power and help it reach it's true potential.

YES!
I've been wanting to get somewhere in ATL where there's a dyno, but I haven't had the part installed on my car yet. I told them(KMS) that I wanted to do a dyno to prove the power, so they said they'll get with on that this week. I know how you guys feel about power and I'll make sure to get you those numbers.

Rob have you guys thought about maybe making a set of true sway bars for our 3.0's? The comptechs dont fit and the accords that do fit, their bushings are different and they keep wearing out I think if we use them. Any thoughts on this? Maybe something to the comptech standard just that it fits for us?

Don't fit, eh?
Well, this is exactly why we're here.
True sway bars that fit and have high durability.
Check. . .

HP Gains. . .

I just got off the phone with the tech and he gave me some good numbers.

For the both the manifold and the throttle body he says expect anywhere from a 5-8 hp gain each.
When coupled with other mods, like an intake, the car should act like a whole new ride!

Don't worry I didn't forget about you. We're still figuring that one out. But, I think we'll need more than just 2 orders to put it in production.

Wouldn't a quiet intake be kind of hard to make? I thought that the sound was from the air rushing in.

Yeah, that's exactly what I told him, but there could be a way to do it without losing a lot of horses.
Besides, if the customer wants something you have to try your hardest to produce it.

my point being that a quiet intake is in demand.. comptech's icebox is the proof.. IMO.. comptech made a quiet intake but its hella expensive.. if you could make a cheaper one.. it would be nice

also, i think the comptech one doesnt completely fit our CL, it has to have some mods made to it... and i htink weapon R might be working on a box for us .. not sure tho :-/

the idea for icebox wasnt to be quiet..it was to conceal the filter from the hot engine bay by covering a box over it to only allow the cold air from your wheel well...i think the box, by accident made it quieter.....thats all

How does this throttle body compare to a Type-S throttle body in HP gains? Also, how does it compare pricewise? I'm a cheap bastard.

First off, welcome back Joe!

Now to answer your question:
HP gains range from 5-8 and it'll cost ya $500, and worth every penny.
