Whats up guys/gals I finally took a couple of quick pics of my whip..with the tint on new exhaust and my in dash dvd player. Next on the list is some intake, clear corners and some Led for the inside. My question is what intake to get..Ive read alot of threads, and ive always been a believer in you get what you pay for. But it seems as if alot of you have bought the cheap intake from ebay and popped a K&N filter on it and rolled with it? Also about the LED's where is a good place to buy some led's to light up the footwells?

I seen this web-site and seems to have some decent prices..the local auto parts store had some but like 27 bucks a tube !?!?

nice muffler, you can get led kits from ebay for cheap. And an aluminum tube is an aluminum tube, I love my ebay intake, it's 10 times better than the "name brand" i bought

Jimcoold99

Thanks, so this would do it?

Or would you suggest a different one? Intake isnt an area i am strong in =/

I would get a cold air intake personally they're much better, and def make sure to throw the k&n on

Jimcoold99

Ah well looks like i am in luck they also carry a CAI too

if you have a 3.0 CL, i would suggest the short ram intake, i think it sounds the best

Hell no, short rams on a 3.0 sound like a ufo, get the cai for sure, trust me i've had both

I agree with BlackAck.. I have a CAI and I love it.. Fujita though, it's not an ebay CAI but I hear that there isn't much of a difference... I personally think it's good though.

3.0 + CAI = MEAN BARK @ VTEC

A ufo? Discribe UFO..

A loud humming sound. My CAI does it a little, but I like it.

Ohhh, thank GOD! I always thought a ufo sounded like a high pitched whistle. Scared me shitless there..

Welcome to the boards.

Jimcoold99

Thanks guys..I am still undecided on the intake =/ But i ordered my clear corners non the less =)

I say go for it. It should run you about $45 on ebay. For a CAI, you can find those for under $200 for a brand name.

Def get the intake, just get the cai

Look ok ? just get that slap a K&N and should be good to go? Im still wondering about some LED kits..I see this one and it looks like a pretty decent price considering other sites.

Thanks !!

If you go for the cai, you may want to budget in $40-50 for a bypass valve just in case.

Also finally my camera will let me upload this shot..doesnt give it must justice but you can see it at least.

looks good, not sure if i like the muffler, kinda looks funny. any side shots? what is it?

XxAtTheGatesxX

^ I believe some side shots are in order.

And FYI, check out what the FAQ and n00b guide have to say about CAI, SRI.

short rams will eat away at your clear coat.

I know this because I have a DS fender that is completely done and needs to be repainted, too bad I have Primrose, this is a 3 stage paint, if anyone doesnt know what that is, you have a base , then the pearl and then clear.

I think the short ram sounds 10x's better than a cold air but the damage it will do is not worth it. If you don't believe me I will send you pictures of my fender.

AznX TL

that doesnt even make sense, intakes dont affect your paint. especially if its under your hood and your clear coat is on the outside. your car is old and clear coat to start to get weathered after 11 yrs.

shit happens to old cars. doesn't mean it's the SRI. Post em' if you got em'.

Jimcoold99

Ah the muffler is just a performance muffler from a local shop lol =/ Sounds good to me and didnt cost me an arm and a leg. But i might just wait on the intake..save for some wheels and a drop. Thanks for all the input..

XxAtTheGatesxX

^Remember, drop before rims, haha.

Germ

rims make the drop pretty..haha..that totally doesnt make sense but thats how i always describe dropping a car before getting rims.

anyway...i didnt like how my flipout blocked a lot of the climate control which is why i sprung for the double din. how are you liking your flipout? how much did it run you

Jimcoold99

Well i caught it at HH gregg for 300 bucks..I may go back and make a new bracket to mount the radio at the bottom instead of at the top. Im really liking it tho but as you said it does block the climate control a bit.

go SRI i just put one on it sounds sick i got the SW so the dual tube setup sounds absolutely amazing. On my way to work i floor it just to reassure myself that it was worth the money. I say yes it was every single time

muff is sick what is that?

s10httnswtchs

id get the wheels before drop you dont want to look like a civic static dropped on some stockers. I got a 35.00 cai off ebay ordered a k&N filter and when my intake came in I measured and ordered a AEM bypass valve. little over a hundred bucks in the whole setup sounds good at WOT. Yea absolutely no clue how that guys sri hurt his paint would defiently wanna see pics
