Just a few new pics

Since my SN is TypeSDragon, might as well get a Weapon R "DRAGON" intake!!





Here is a video of the VTEC growl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujGROhKBceI

RED TL on the floormats compliment well with the red lighting and steering wheel.

Nice! So you decided to go with a SRI instead of a CAI?

I went with SRI since the area I am living do floods a lot in the highway. Don't want to take that chance of being stranded or hydrolocking the motor.

Not sure which one is better than the other. But there is a big difference in price, the Dragon cost relatively 80 dollars less than the Secret. They both sure sound similar when accelerating. The throttle response is a whole lot better and when you hit over 4k RPM, the car really screams!!

The intake kit does come with a heatshield. It was a whole chrome top that covers the whole air filter. Air was going to be absorb from the top of the heatshield. I felt it was not enough of a opening to let all the air go in. So I will probably me making a custom heatshield, similar like the INJEN.
