EVO2?? nice.. i like that exhaust too, i might plan to get it in the future, but, AT getting exhaust is kinda weird... so, i don't know. And EVO2 is kinda common now.... i want FEELS titanium!

The hood is ok for now since it is carbon fiber which still scores a decent amount of points. you should buy the hood and hold onto it for me.
Just take it slow bro, since we are some poor ass students, unlike some FULL TIME workers.... just take it easy w/ the airbag! That thing is $$$ man. What you've done with your salary is amazing already!! For the JDM intake, maybe just go with a SPoon or Mugen filter for now? i don't know how much less points those are than CAI, but, at least it's JDM!!
I want to get the Phase hood!! bad!! he said he will reserve it for me, like a LONG time ago....but i don't have the money, since CF hood isn't my 1st piority right now, rims are!!

Need a little more speed get hondata, RT Cat, DC Header, I am thinking of getting those before summer possibly cause it would defintly make driving it even more of a blast. I personally still find the tsx fast considering the first car I drove was a Buick Park Avenue with is basically a pontoon boat on wheels. If you add those 3 mods I am sure it will be a lot faster than it is now which is why I want to do them.

So you say that he is willing to hold the Phase hood. How much is he looking to cell the Phase hood for. If it isnt that much then I will look into selling mine.

But the TSX< like, no offence, it's a heavy ass car, litterally! Its slow, sluggish and no speed!! Sure mods can improve the handling and speed, but still not fast enough!! STill can't beat a common G35 or 350Z. Sure it does beat MOST of the cars on the street, but i want something that's insane fast.....haha! for my first car, i am kinda happy, even though it's not speed, it's still on the luxury side. But i hope i can own something 400+hp one day, cause even a M3, i think it's not fast enough, i just crave for speed too much......
and seriously, i am really getting into the JDM thing, so i might only mod my car with JDM parts! so...no Injen, RT, or Comptech~

Possibly will buy some non JDM power mods in the near future too.

He had that hood in his storage for 1 whole year!! it used to be his bro, but his bro sold the TSX and got a S2k instead. and he didn't want to put the hood on. He asked me before, i told him to hold on to it but i never got around to it. He doesn't mind, like he's not poor and in need to sell the hood, he's rich, so he doesn't mind holding it. But, i ain't sure if he will lower the price though. I can help you ask, since i am kinda friends with him, but he's those people who doesn't really give a damn if he sells it or not, cuz he will just put it in storage. It's not like he needs the money~

So... ya, just get rid of the ACURA first and slowly mod it later. I know which intake you are talking about... ya, get that.
