i'm not so sure there is a k&n drop in that fits without a little modification do a search there are people that i think bought one a little small and built themselves a little gasket to go around the edges and you don't have to remove the resonator but most people like the way it sounds or your other options are the icebox or the CAI just do a search and you'll see and more people probably would have responded if your question was a little easier to read notice how tough it was to read this sorry i felt like being funny today

i appreciate your response. Yeah i seen a DIY where a guy "hacked off the resonator" but i had no idea how he did it but i liked the sound it made after he hacked it off.

i think there is a drop in filter for TSX...but I'm not completely sure. Taking the resonator is easy and is probably a "must do" mod, especially since it's free. I did this at first, too, and loved it. However, i later took out the whole intake system and made my own SRI with an AEM filter.

A drop in filter does not required the resonator to be taken out or anything. The resonator is way more down in the intake system, next to the wheel well.

There is a drop-in K&N filter which should fit fine. The DIY gasket method is for the Comptech Icebox Lid and K&N filter. The Icebox lid doesn't completely seal when using the K&N drop in filter so some of us added the gasket.

Please people, use English sentences. Your mother would slap you if she read some of the shit you people post on these boards. The internet is no excuse to be dumb. This is a forum, not a text message.
