After months of wanted to get the intake I pick non other than a 27F night to install my intake with a friend in a parking garage. Overall the whole process was fast. I used both the manual that came with Injen and a DIY Walkthrough by one of our board members. I got the whole setup in SRI Mode in about a hour. It took another 2 hours to get it into CAI mode. I swear that second bolt that keeps the resonator box on the car was the biggest PITA to get out. I but my hand out a few times doing it as well. I think I was lacking the proper tools to each that one bolt, but half an hour into working on the bolt I couldn't feel my hands anymore and couldn't see it. Later I finally got everything going and I have one thing to say. It's a MEAN sounding intake, no joke, the people on this forum weren't kidding.

Overall a worth while mod. Too bad my friend didn't get to fit his intake in today. He got a V2 for the Si and there was a bolt that was rusted shut on the engine mount bracket that he couldn't even get out with a 150lbs torque wrench. Any tips?

 

Congrats on the intake and doing it yourself. I have yet to do mine. For your friends rusted bolt have him douche it with penetrating oil and let it sit over night. Should break loose then.

 

congrats buddy!, it really sounds awesome, your gonna be paying more gas money now that your foot is gonna be harder on the throttle.

 

i finally got my injen intake, and i must thank wolfpack_tsx for his pictures and his instructions. it help me a lot. i'm a noob at mods, and this was my first. so i was a little lost, but with the help of the people one this site, i got it done, and now i can't take my foot of the throttle. there goes the gas mileage.

 

The Injen CAI has a sweet sound. It's not ricey like other intakes I've heard. And yes, my gas mileage has also gone down since the install. Small price to pay for a nice WOT sound

 

Yo, What site did you guys buy your Injen from? I want to buy today!

 

I already bought it...

 

Where did you buy yours?

 

thanks omar for letting me hear the intake at the socal meet. i did sound great. so finally i ordered mine today for $215 shipped off ebay. i'll create an install thread as soon as i get it.

 

I ordered mine too, took out the resonator... wow it was a bleep to get those darn clips off haha... stupid me you can pull it out of the shell then pull out.. whoops I broke 1 too many.

My cai should arrive somewhere this week then I will too be a happy one.

 

Good, i order my Injen CAI last week...it should be coming this week or next. CAn't wait!

 

Trung next time you want something for your TSX..call me or hit me up here...I bet I can get you a better price. =) By the way I hear you saw my girl over at Nam's pad....So wassup man you coming to test and tune with us? And are you gonna go to the tuner bash car show? I am entering...come out with the boys...we'll kick it sometime.

 

Stokeless_TSX.........I'll be in the market for a INJEN CAI in a month or so. I would appreciate some info on where to get a good buy. Thanks

 

My prices are a hook up at a local shop...with shipping to FL you might as well get it online or at a local shop there. I can usually get it for a great deal including shipping and tax free in the seattle area. But your not here let me know when your ready and I will see what my shop says.

 

I'm glad I could help some of the people out on this board. Actually I'm pretty proud that my instructions have been so well recieved. I put alot of time into taking pictures and trying to describe what the hell I was looking at during the install. figure it's the least I can do since I spend so much time on here and I've learned a ton in the process.

 

Ohh for sure next time i'll give you a ring my man, and yes...i'm going to test and tune. I wanna see your ride and wut dexter is going to run. When is tuner bash ? I'll see if i could make it, maybe we'll hit up the club after that (21+)

 

Hey question should the Injen cai be removedduring snow season? and what is "wet climate conditions" like floods? or like rain?

I live in Ny so I get about all 4 season...

 

no, don't remove it in snow season. wet conditions would flooding IMO.
