UPDATED
got my BPI stack and k&n filter

picts.








well I received it today at work... put it together and Installed it as soon as i got home.


My teg.

Why not get a velocity stack and put that in the headlight hole? Then run a tube to the Comptech box, i think the filter would look ghetto in the high beam hole.
I decided, if I dont find a used passenger side headlight, I will just run a flex pipe up from the bumper somewhere...

**UPDATE**
not that anyone cares, bitches...

Someone hit me from behind like 2 weeks ago or so... took care of that asap, and some of the minor surface rust that the car was starting to develop.

spring is here, weather hasnt been TOO bad. so, with that said.
INSTALLED:
Skunk2 Pro-S - today
5Zigen Wheels - last week
Skunk2 Lugs - last week
94 - 97 tails - last week

I didn't get a chance to install the lower control arms yet because I dont have the right tools (and scared the one of the bolts my brake in there. So im going to ask one of my friends, who works for acura and have all the right tools, to install them for me...)

OK, enough rambling.
PICTS.

BEFORE SKUNK2 PRO INSTALLATION.

ADDED:

Don't raise the DB8! Just be careful. Angling is your best friend.

UPDATE 5-27-08
- I replaced the exhaust system with a newer one, another Apexi WS2. The current one has a rattle by gas tank, which should be fixed by Friday.
- Getting her street tuned with hondata chip Friday. Want to see the power (hp/tq) she puts out. Also hopefully get my vtec lowered a tad. (comments about this please.) Can anyone explain or link me to information on what the tuner will do ?
- gotta install my skunk2 lower control arms, still dunno when.
- I replaced the 94 - 97 tail lights because they were letting water in... Does anyone know a process to sealing these well ?.
- I replaced my old spark plug wires with advanced auto part ones, which are terrible. They seem to be popping out..? I'll be ordering some NGK wires soon.

^ advanced discount sells NGK and Bosch spark plugs which are great quality.
I got the NGK IRI. spark plugs, but I went out and bought some advanced auto spark plug wires since i bought the plugs new, and they're shitty. So I need wires...


Hopefully nothing goes wrong friday during tuning.

I'm loving the updates.
thanks... nothing special, just trying to keep the thread alive and up to date...

Ah. I just had to replace my spark plugs and I got the wires from discount auto, I think the brand is autolite or something. Pretty sure the wires were ok (I had the NGK blues) because the plugs were very rusty (water incident) and nasty, but wire set was in good condition. I'll see if I can find out how much mileage is on them, but if you want them LMK. (I'll give you a cheap as hell price BTW for the NGK blues)

UPDATE

So after getting pulled over 3 times and getting lucky away without a ticket for tints... The 4th one didnt go tooo well for me. I got a ticket, so I ripped off the cheap tints that the car had. sucks, but yeah... i'll take pictures in the morning.. =\
hopefully soon i'll get legal tints, 70% or 75%.. something like that. better than nothing... =[
