Hold on to it. It's not worthed much if you try to sell it. But it costs a ton from your Acura dealer. You never know when you need it.

Exactly!! You might need it one day. For example, if you ever drive over enough water to hydro-lock you engine, your dealer will tell you to screw yourself with that aftermarket intake. This way, just pop the original one back on, and then take it to the dealer.

Just my opinion.

If and when you sell you CL, you'll typically get more money if you part out the aftermarket parts than sell the car with everything on it.

Exactly, or the car buyer may not like the CAI sound and you'll be able to offer him/her the stock part instead of having to buy it again from Acura.

I just threw all the stock parts in the box the intake came in, and tossed it into the attic.
