I didnt know about the compression but the CAI is correct and also a redesigned exhaust manafold (which is where i think most of the 10hp came from)any one who has put headers on knows there's alot of hps tide up in there.

im asking cuz im looking at TL-S cams right now.. they are like 125$ on www.acuraautomotiveparts.com (i use this site as a reference..)
i looked at the 04TL cams and they are 88$ ! So if the 04TL engine is just an improved (air intake/manifold) version of the J32A2 the cams should be the same right?
why are the '04 cams cheaper then?? 40$ cheaper is a lot!
