honeygrl28, 05TLTony is right! Further more, any turbo kit will have a problem passing a visual smog check if you have smog requirements like CAL. This is because Honda designed catalytic converters that are attached inches from the heads where the exhausts come out. A turbo setup, whether single or dual will require the Cats be relocated, requiring a lot of extra plumbing.
As for the SC, it's made by Comptech, adds about 40- 60 at the wheels, so for a 6MT lets say - somewhere up near 330HP at the engine not to mention the increase in torque.
The clincher is the Comptech SC DOES NOT VIOLATE the factory warranty, is maintenance free for about 70K miles and the SC looks factory installed, it’s that clean.
If your interested in more info on the Comptech SC, go to http://www.comptechusa.com/store/product427.html, PM me or give Comptech a call at (916) 939-9118 and ask for Billy.
Good luck!

becker800, If the law that applies here in California applies to all states then it goes something like this - By law, Acura (your dealer) can't deny warranty work unless they can show how the particular aftermarket mod contributed to the failure of a part or subsystem (like engine, tranny, electronics, etc...).
What you need to be careful of is, the law does not state that the dealer has to service you. He can choose to send you away to avoid getting into issues between you and with the corporate office concerning you problem. As I stated in another post, it has happened to others I know.
