Hey guys,

You guys are nothing but the best of help, I honestly thank you for the bottom of my heart for not letting me ruin my car and recommending the proper parts and what to get and what not to get. I appreciate it honestly. I also admire how no one has jealousy and has evil intents of ruin ones car, instead work like a family in helping a newbie. I have grown to fit in this community, and I will continue to stay active on this board, And I only visited this site and became a member a week ago, I am here to stay. Thanks guys.

3. Comptech USA Supercharger w/ Icebox to cool engine internals
4. OEM Kit.
5. Volk Kuwagata 19" rims(I need a good radial tread for these and a good brand, thanks)

Thanks guys

your icebox is a CAI...you don't need the injen

personal preference...do comptech everything insluding the exhaust

don't forget your strut tower bar and front and rear sways as well as lowering your 4x4 when you put the 19" on

Yes. The name "Ice box" doesn have anything to do with cooling engine or whatever components.
I think the reason why they put "Ice box" is to emphathize their "COLD AIR" intake product...

Hey,

The strut tower bar is optional ... I have a Cusco bar (add-on to the stock Type-S bar) and it provides marginal torsional stability. I don't know how much more the Comptech bar would add (replaces OEM strut tower bar).

But looks like you're more go than show ... save your $$$ on the CT supercharger and get the CT headers, CAI (whatever you want), CT springs/aftermarket shocks, CT sways, and pocket the rest on rims/tires!

My $0.02 ...
- derrick

PS CAI can be used in Canada... you hear the 'roar' when you hit VTEC. Might give marginal gains in HP. Be sure to consider a bypass valve if you drive in places with big puddles. Water in engine = BAD.
