help with modding Accord Euro '03

[natnat]

for under the hood...

small budget:
- K&N replacement panel filter (no potential issues or whatsoever)

decent budget:
- Injen (but don't drive through floods or go WOT in heavy rains) and best to check w/ VIC Roads first on uncovered intake pod..

big budget:
- GruppeM intake
- select all the performance mods listed in Heel Toe Automotive TSX (CL9) section, incl bolt on Comptech Supercharger Kit per below link

but remember, the more mods you put onto the car, the higher your insurance premium (unless you don't bother to insure all those mods) and the more potential headaches and $$$ evaporates from your bank when something does not go right. it's a risk that you must be aware of and accept

just a question about this.. im in melbourne, is a CAI illegal? as a P plater

[DEIFIC]

* i know any sort of modification is illegal but do police frown upon the CAI?

[marquee]

The intake is pretty hard to see just say it is enclosed they won't take off your bumper

[DEIFIC]

yeah i get that. but is the intake itself illegal? i mean they'll see this big shiny part in my engine bay saying INTAKE and be like wtf is this (assuming cop has no idea about cars)

If you're worried bout legalities, the CT-E Icebox is about as stock looking as you'll get from an aftermarket intake. I sprayed mine with VHT Wrinkle Black and most people wouldn't be able to pick it out as an aftermarket part

i've had a Fujita CAI in my euro for about 4-5 months. im not too worried about legalities haha besides my car doesnt attract too much attention as it is. i was just wondering if its illegal or not.

it's illegal if it is exposed!
