hmmmm you said plastic looked cheap..... the metal pipe on Y7 looks cheap as hell, looks completely ghetto, post a pic of your Y7 with a SRI, its laughable but thats all.... Stock = Clean.

Edit: Dude im just trying to get my post across lol no insult meant toward you.

I had an AEM CAI on my Y8 and it made my bay look 10x better.
I used to have Y7 with an intake.... I hated it with a passion, maybe its just me though.

In the matter of looks on this subject we both simply agree to disagree. Im on the opposite side of what you said there :lol:

just to add to this post. I added a cold air intake pipe from a z6 to my stock set up. NO filter on the end of the pipe but i do have a K&N drop in filter in the box. sounds nice, added a bit of throttle response and I am still getting almost 300 miles pers tank.

ohh and I know im not getting BIG HP #'s I just hated the stock tiny crimpled tubing, and with the stock resonator it made it look like i had 2 airboxes. I do agree the y7 with a SRI looks like s**t! thats why i did not go that route. over all i am satisfied and motor swap is in the future plans just an FYI.

Does anyone else agree that a D16Y7 looks 10x Better with a stock airbox? Considering it has the fugliest intake manifold ever made? lmao


EDIT: LMAO Get a AEM Sticker and stick it on the intake, than spray a layer of clear coat over the pipe/sticker BOOOOOOOOOOM bling :P
No and No

Without a doubt the cleanest Y7 intake I have ever seen. Good Job.

yeah like i said i've been using spectre filters on my turbo for about 40k miles now and they've done great. no complaints. i just like that they don't cost $50 so you can just toss them and buy a new one at the local autozone for fairly cheap

There is a reason I'm picking sound over performance, because I drive a civic, what performance could I possibly wring out of a 1.6L I4 with 122K?

I could care less if people label me a ricer, the point is this is something I WANT to do with my limited amount of money, even if people would turn their nose down on it.

Why would I give a s**t about what someone says about my car, why would I care?

But I AM with you on the looks dept, Im doing that piece by piece. First the head/tail lights, fog lights, drop the car about an inch, then finally rims

But body kits can go f**k themselves, there is no point to spending money to add weight to your car



EVER
I LIKE THIS GUY! ^

I say good choice dude, if you like it rock it. f**k if i had an auto id do it too, i like the intake purr. And with previous statements, you do usually get what you pay for, but ive used spectre's for the llast 3 years with NO problems, in fact i like my spectre on my tibby more than the k&n in came with.
