[Nepolian]

These threads only bring out the SRI hate patrol!

Only recently you say... in the middle of winter you say...

Wait till summer hits, you'll notice the lose of power.

i know wat u mean man, i had a pod on my previous car. but even with my stock airbox, i could still feell heatsoak and the sluggishness of the car, so an sri really cant be that bad compared to stock. obviously when it its hot, no car will run at its optimum, but then there are those cool summer nights to look forward to, whether you have an sri or cai. but as vtec screamer said, sri's are for the poor, i definitely agree to some extent. but it is also cheap and very cost effective.

You should honestly go and **** yourself.

Anyway, OP, grab a CAI and you won't regret it.

The first aftermarket intake I had on my car was a SRI.

Totally agree with the noise it made (It is awesome!), but I wasn't happy with the perfomance. A couple of weeks before I bought my Mugen intake I actually took part in a Honda Dyno day. My DC5R got 116FWKW for its first run... it then backed up with a 114kw run... then a 112kw run. Every other car on the day was getting consistant figures for each run, so this is when I (And everyone at the Dyno day) realised that having an exposed pod filter sitting right above the gearbox, and next to the engine wasn't a good idea.

I just bought an injen for my DC5R and got it installed last week end ... it is heaps better now especially at top end. When it hits vtec the intake roarrrrssss. It's an awesome sound! definitely back for bucks and good gains..

Regardless of what people say, an Sri is a good beginners upgrade, cheap and noticeable! I say go for it, I'm sure that if you're not sure, someOne here from your area!

Well I have SRI for my dc2r and at the moment looking to get a fabricated air feed into the bottom half of the pod its going to be pretty big would that mean I get the best of both worlds? 360 degree air intake as well as a feed of cold air to at least 50-60% of the pods surface area?

Khang, from what I've seen, just run some extra pipes into the bumper and make it pretty much a CAI.
