is it just my speakers or does the engine completely drown out other sounds? I'm not even sure if I'm hearing the right thing, if it is, that's insane, I can't recall it actually being that loud.

^ Having an intake helps increase the decibels.

Cold Air Intake on my TL and RL, makes them both sound GREAT under acceleration, otherwise they're very quiet at steady speeds.

I was so surprised how much louder the car was under decent acceleration the first time I went driving after installing my CAI. It was pretty .


VTEC is
Now if only I could restrain myself to save up for Hondata. ZOMG!
