How is your CL 3.5 liters?...I didnt know you could increase that? I am adding Comptech headers, and exhaust this week...and I already have the AEM CAI, so what does that make my car? By the way, I've seen your car...and your shit is tight! Thanx

2001 Acura CL Type S with Navi in Satin Silver with Type S ebony leather. Came stock with a spoiler, splash guards, wheel locks, and all around 20% tint, AEM CAI with Bypass Valve.
Coming soon: Comptech springs, headers, exhaust, and filter.

Back then it cost $4999 minus $1000 cuz he had headrs already. But now if you have headers already it will cost $3499 including engine work. I don't think it includes CAI, V-afc, and I heard something about Brembo brakes.. not sure.. I have not seen syncivic post here in some time

It definitely doesn't include the Brembo kit, that's about $2K by itself.

You're right no brembo kit.. but the brakes probably needed to be upgraded after the hp upgrade.. i don't think the price included CAI or vtec timer right? I think mchtypes had a custom iceman intake and his own v-afc.. so it might have cost him $4000

I think the brakes need to be upgraded without even getting the 3.5L upgrade, they really suck. And yeah, he already had the intake and headers, but I don't remember how much he paid. I also doubt the prices quoted include an intake or v-afc. I believe he had an s-afv which he's changing for a v-afc due to the problems the s-afc has given to other 3.5L conversions. At least I think it's an "s-afc," I have no idea what it is, but he mentioned he needed to change the unit he already had for a v-afc and don't know if this was included in the price either.
