hey guys! srry to bother so much on intake suggestions but what kind do u guys have and any pics of them i can c. my intake hose is like ripped so i need to replace it but i rather buy a cai than a new hose

 

generally AEM CAI is used, if you want to slightly mod a SRI than that's made by Takeda.

Either one is a TL take off.

 

i snagged a Knock off TL CAI pipe off ebay with K&N filter for $54 shipped. just hunt the deals are out there

 

alright. thxs guys

 

Carbon.... How hard to install your CAI? Did it make any noticeable power?

I'm sure it sounds cool....

 

Rlman05-

...are you really 17? Nice car for being in high school! Your parents must love you!

 

Took me about a hour to do it. Hardest part was getting the resonator out. Im very mechanically inclined and not afraid to mess up so it may be quicker for me to do it.

 

yea. im acutally 16, but my mom gave me this car with alot of miles and she got herself a new car

 

Yea that resonator was a bitch. I wound up taking a hack saw to it LOL
You might want to go to Sam', Costco, or Bjs and grab an economy pack of condoms. I'm 25 driving this car and I had to LOL I couldnt imagine what kind of damage I would've done if I had a car like this at 16-17

 

hahahaha... I would so be paying child support right now if I had a baller ass car at 16.

 

Im 27, and im a photographer. Bitches love cars and camera's lol

 

Don't get me started on the amount of play that "photographers" get... and by photographers I mean anyone with an SLR and a backdrop.

 

FIXED

 

Lol yea back in the pickin up 4 girls in my 2 seat coupe!"! Oh what fun :-)

 

haha done it!
too bad my parents didn't hand me down a baller ass car, instead i paid in full for a baller ass car and got in trouble lol.

OP, if i were you and know what i know now; i would have sold my car and put a down payment on a rental condo or house. drove in a civic and be in a better place right now.

mods don't add value
refurnished home adds value

 

The man speaks the truth.

 

Yes he does.

 

Fuck! and i thought i was pretty young to own a RL!...u got a nice mom

 

yeaa. has like 170,000 miles though. tht kinda hurts me to c so much miles on it

 

set it on trip, that way you dont see the miles haha

i would have been in trouble too if i had a car of this caliber when i was in High school...

and yes.. dont invest everything in mods.. you always lose money.

 

Shoot theres a dude with like 300K miles on his RL somewhere around here. Still running strong

 

haha girls don't see mileage! they see shiny expensive car!

if it was me i would leave my window sticker on that displayed msrp lol

 

170k is a breeze. Replacing parts also gives you a reason to upgrade/mod. For instance, if it hasn't been already, the suspension needs to be changed. I'm sure the rotors do too. That's my plan. Wait until the part needs it anyway, and then I can justify my mods.

 

yea ik. if gonna get a new intake because my intake hose in like ripped like half wayyy. so im just gonna buy a cai

 

hha. and i hide the milage with the degrees outside

 

also, any of you guys have over 150,000 miles yet?
