LOL. But for $250 that's nothing. With a bit of a tune I can make my car get 230 whp bro, if I add this intake.

Don't you wish. The only real gain you'll get is more noise when you accelerate. (Don't you think Honda would have done that when they designed the car if it gave more power?). On a more practical note, I wouldn't be to eager for the AEM without getting the water bypass valve and creating something to shield the intake from sucking up water that drips from above the intake. (and do you really want to have to remove your bumper to clean your air filter?

I've got the original AEM CAI on mine..... Didn't put the bypass valve on mine..... If you are planning on driving thru water that is that deep that it would get sucked in.... you have a major screw loose!

Not sure where the v2 intake runs to... and I'm to lazy to go look! On my RSX, it is still in the engine compartment, and didn't need to be ran far at all.

As Mike said, the bumper comes off fairly easy... and you only need to clean the dry filters every 20-25k miles.....

Fujita intake is a similar gain to the fipk. Right now it goes like this for me. AEM V2 is what I want. If I have to modify my s2000 AT ALL to get it to fit, I'm getting the fipk. Both I can get for under $300 which is nice

.

Oh yea, my car is almost equal to a bmw 335i now!
