Just position it as normal in the bumper cavity where the resonator would have been. You don't need direct airflow to the intake anyway (ram effect only works at about 200km/h I've read). The air in the cavity is cool enough to work ok.

If i do purchase it will be no where else but from the Acura Dealer on Ebay ;)

from our ozhonda trade JDMconcept. they have it too. But i got mine from usa.

OK guys almost about to hit the "BUY IT NOW" option from ebay for a Comptech Ice Box .

Before I do just want to ask do people who have one installed really think its worth it ?

Also how can I get replacement filters for it ?

Last but not least when I want to sell my Euro one day can I put the OEM Air Filter & res back without any hassles ?


Cheers

But what happens if I need to replace it ? The filter

Hi.

This Comtech Icebox thing, does it basically do the same thing as an K&N or Injen Cai but just not as loud as them?

Sorry for the silly question but just got my Euro yesterday and i am trying to figure out what the best way to goes is?

Thanks.

The filter that comes with the icebox is washable so theoretically you dont need other filters. I would recommend you buy the filter recharge kit made by Comptech (Acura of Escondido sell it too) - it was under $10 and fits within the icebox box so no extra shipping required.

Yes you can put your filter and res back when selling the car. As for it being 'no hassle' - well that depends on whether you think removing the bumper is a hassle or not.

As for it being 'worth it' - that is a tough call. It isnt incredibly expensive (given a full tank of gas for the Euro is over $80 these days). That said I think the Whiteline rear sway is better bang for buck...

Thanks Yfin ;)
