I had it on my V6 Accord... NO DIFFERENCE. After it got totaled I sold the Apexi II for $175 to a friend. Sale the money for CIA or headers, something that will make a difference.

I have one Installed and I like it.
It may/may not help you make more power (I bought the car with), but just for the fact that it allows you to change the VTEC engagement point is a big plus.
I have tested many engagement points and prefer to set mine 600 RPM lower (4200). I find the engine power much more useable at those settings.

switching vtec lower gives you better top end but you lose bottom end power. I still have my vtec setting at the stock point which is 4500 I believe.
