intakes make your mpg go down, b/c you always manage to find yourself in vtec range 90% of the time. :P

I got my AEM intake from the same guy but $20 cheaper at the time. Ships fast, prompt responses. Less expensive, better finish, and oh how pleasing it is to hear the Tec roar.

Ice box is less of a hassle though and supposedly you get better gains than the AEM.
Sure the AEM looks better and sounds louder but i'd rather have the HP and hassle free operation that the icebox offers

The Icebox delivers the best performance period.
Who cares how it looks.

However, I've managed to get about 24-26 since installing the AEM (and Stone Headers), where I had been getting about 21-23 with stock. The sound of the AEM is intoxicating, bro. Check Black Market...it's where I found mine.

Since your girl is drving the CL, I would go with the Icebox. It would cause less attention since there is no noise.

Quite pleased. I had a slight fitment issue (2nd prototype), but it was rather manageable.
