i'm new be nice

You high?

I just cleaned my injen and replaced the hydro shield. Ofcourse there is nothing wrong with injen, from all the intakes i've seen on the market. Injen takes the cake. Affordability vs Performance gain, its really bang for buck. I recommend them. Had them all my cars expect the jazz, as its got bigger plans.

Injen's Meh.

It's more fanboi points than anything else

hell, a comptech icebox makes more HP than Injen and cost almost 50% less

Best CAI for the CL9 is the K&N Typhoon, and it cost the same as Injen.

the main restriction in the stock exhaust system is the exhaust manifold - so you are much better off saving for a good set of headers

OP's got a Preface, deal with the 900 cel CAT before header, or better yet do them together.

most brands are around the $400-$600 mark but the best one is the Toda setup at upwards of $1000 if you can afford it

Weapon R is bang for buck because"
1. Comes with test pipe (therefore you can weld a cat to it w/o screwing around with pipes)
2. its' stock length, unlike the Hytech/PLM setup that would need you to screw up your stock/aftermarket catback to make everything fit

secondly intake - now this all depends on what you want from your car - the two best options here are the Fujita/Injen CAI kit or the Comptech Icebox Intake kit
the Fujita/Injen CAI kit will give you a slight gain in the top end and give that loud induction roar

K&N makes most HP i'd go with that.

another couple of things you can change without spending thousands are the engine drive pulleys - light weight pulleys will give you similar results to a light weight flywheel and a bit of power to boot

agreed I have OEM sized lightened pulley, makes a massive different lower down.

adding a bigger rear swaybar will dramatically increase the handling characteristics of the CL9 - anything larger than 18/19mm will require stronger end links as well as the standard ones break once u go bigger than that

$60 for new stiffened endlinks (i upgraded to moorgs for my CTE 22mm), well worth it

if you have a good mechanic and access to the parts - changing the gear ratios and final drive with K20 Type-R components is regarded as one of the best value for money mods you can do on our CL9

Only if you are doing ECU mods at the same time cause you'll need to recalibrate the speedo.

do you know if the comptech kit is stock size and fitment?

It is

But comptech don't exactly have the best gains, it's not a race header

And it doesn't comes with a test pipe.
