Ordered an ebay intake($30) to be used with my FIPK box and BPI velocity stack. The FIPK pipe is 3" OD but the piping is very thick. I had to dremel it so the BPI stack flowed smoothly into the pipe. I figured this would make better use of the BPI stack and should look much better than the bland FIPK pipe. I'm also curious as to how much louder the aluminum pipe is going to be over the plastic FIPK

So I have everything to put my suspension on and a Berk header waiting to go on. I guess Berk doesn't send gaskets with their header so I'm going to have to go buy/order some tomorrow. And they sent me the wrong intake. Now I'm going to see if I can make a custom intake from my old SRI off my Prelude and the piping they sent me. So all together it would be a FIPK with slightly larger piping, longer piping and a velocity stack; the HKS intake is my inspiration. If I look at it and decide that it can't be done, I'll message the vendor.

After these parts are on, I'm saving for a truck so the S can sit in a heated garage this winter. After I have a truck though, the mods will keep coming. Oh yeah, I've only owned the S for about a year now. Pretty good progress so far IMO.
