Hmmm...nice. I could have hooked you up with the torque damper and Injen CAI though. I have both of those parts taking up space in my garage as well as a RH, Ingalls camber kit, and short shift links

You should get a Buddy Club header to match your exhaust. Just my 2 cents.

i was going to but you have to get an aftermarket sway bar to accomidate the header, i think you can get one for like 200 or ive heard you can get one from an em2 for like 50 but idk

so im not really sure on what im gonna do im not lookin to make a big power beast just decent numbers, after k-pro ill be done with the motor

I know a few DC5 guys that just get a CAI, header, exhaust, K-Pro, then BAM! They're all ready to go.

Nice! I really recommend changing to a CAI, because the way the SRI is mounted, it turns into the rear of the bay and not to the front, where there is cooler air. That's the reason why my buddy switched from a SRI to a CAI. Due to mad heat soak. Just my opinion. The DC5 is looking great man!

yea the way they designed the SRI is pretty crappy. Especially since honda turned the motor around to have one solid air flow pattern from front to back. But thanks for the advice im going to get one after i get the exterior how i want it, im not a real big speed guy its quick enough for me. I just bought the SRI for like 20 bucks lol thats why i got it

Shit, if I had a DC5, I wouldn't be complaining about the power either. That's why I'm going to get a K-Series. Lol!

I think I still have the short shift links, Injen intake, Race header, and camber kit. It's all for sale on a local forum now though.

The bad thing about the SRI on an RSX is that if you slam your car your filter will get smashed by the steering shaft. That's something you gotta pay attention to. But a CAI is right behind the front opening in the bumper so it's easy to get water in there especially if lowered.
