Ditto.

BTW. After driving 800 miles yesterday, I have concluded the following (obvious):

VTEC > VVT-i. 210 HP in a Toyota Avalon is not enough.

Installed now.

I had the TSB regarding the center channel rattle done at John Eagle Acura in Katy... Well no wonder it never sat in the dash correctly... They didn't put half the clips in!!!! And they cracked the damn thing! I hate those guys.

I managed to put it in with some massaging and the sound difference is noticeable to me. It doesn't sound as muddy to me up front. Worth it? Yes. And I'm not saying that because I want to sell it. I HATE the Acura system. My dad's 2001 Lexus ES300 and mom's 02 Avalon have better sounding systems. This helps clear up some of the crap. Front door speakers and tweeters are next.
