i only say rice meaning all talk and no play.... when i floor it i sounds really nice... but i didnt really increase HP by much or at all.... the only difference i noticed is that when its idealing its very smooth...
i just removed the stock piping and that pointless resonator...Quote:

whoops my bad, I just thought it looked alot like a vtec solenoid???
ok i know that whenyou add a pod to the car it should change the sound of the engine... but didnt think it would change it this much..
now when i put my foot down... theres a really deep rumbling sound from the engine... when i take my foot off that sound goses away strieght away and is replaced with a whooshing sound...
the deep sound is like what you get from an exhurst at low revs... is this normal??
its just the induction sounds, all hondas have it, theres nuffin to be scared of dude its just normal....
just remember when you buy the piping for the direct air feed..make sure the material is fire proof
ok last night i went to bunnings and got some thermo tubing and just stuck it in the front like so:

and comes out right under the filter

would this make any difference at all?? i tested it with a hair dryer and most of the air gets through...so i would think when the car is moving there would be a but of fresh air getting in?
wow nice job.!
