SWEET! Nice ride, thanks for the pictures, I was wondering how the comptech axle back exhaust would fit with the body kit and you have the perfect picture of it. Guess I can get it now!

Looking really good! Your blue bulbs in the front turn signals reflect blue just like mine (i think its pretty neat). Anyways, good luck with your TL-S.

How difficult was that CAI install? I'm thinking about adding one to mine. Can you feel a gain in performance? Worth it in your opinion?

Looks like I have a few questions to answer...here goes...

PeterUbers - "How's she runnin' w/ the exhaust and intake (do you have headers, I couldn't tell from the engine bay shot)??"

She's running great, I've got the nice low hum at idle and while cruising from the exhaust & the roar of the CAI when the VTEC kicks in...you defintely feel the difference while driving (although it is primarily due to the intake not the exhaust). Everyone compliments the exhaust though as being just the right look & sound. I don't have the headers yet, I am tossed btw headers & rims...I'll have one or the other by Feb of next yr, I hope.


jyang411 - "What kind of turn-signal lights did you guys get? I'm wondering how they're different etc. Fill me in?"

They are the Polarg M-14 BI Hybrid up front and the Polarg M-7 BI Hybrid in the rear. The only difference is that when they are on or flashing they are "superwhite" in color. They are illegal (since they are white turn signals) but I have only heard of people getting tickets for it, never had it happen myself and this is the 3rd car in the last 7 yrs that I've had them on.)


SybariticOne - "How difficult was that CAI install? I'm thinking about adding one to mine. Can you feel a gain in performance? Worth it in your opinion?"

The CAI intake wasn't that bad to install, took about 45 minutes. You will need to go through the engine bay, wheel well and remove the plastic undercarrige shield (under the engine bay) to install it though. I'm a power & speed freak so I think it was well worth it. The gains from it are noticeable especially when the VTEC kicks in b/c the engine roars. You will have to deal with a constant hissing sound though since the CAI is sucking air directly into the intake. I don't mind it at all, in fact I especially love the sound it makes after turning the car off.

I'll post more pictures after the next mod...hope it's not to far in the future.
