I agree both are DIY-able, even for me.

Progress RSB from Excelerate or AcuraTLParts.com. 24mm, poly bushings.

AEM, Injen, Fujita Intake. ~$230 - ~$250.


If you're dead set on having them installed, find a Honda/Acura specialist in your area. A lot of dealers will do them, but labor is often an arem and a leg. National/Regional chains are an alternative and would be my next choice.

Agree with the members you should do it yourself, when I started on this website the most I had ever installed on a car was a decal, now I've installed everything including procats

Welcome and I hope you decide to get out the tools and go at it the best way by doing it yourself, it is your car you will give it the best tlc

I did the AEM intake myself, with the supplied instructions... VERY VERY easy to follow, with pictures and everything! The AEM is awesome, and great customer support if you get stumped.

thanks for your input

yeah i live in temecula, ca and i heard that AEM intake are pretty good but does it pass CA smog criteria? also im hearing that injen intake is better than AEM is this any true or just invalid statement?

so far i have installed race pedals, changed all the interior light with LEDs. now i wanted to improve the performance of the car whether it's horsepower or handling. just the other day this new Camry V6 blew me off at the stop light.

I would want to install it myself but no time. any shops you guys recommend? price and quality of work is important.
