Thanks so much for your help, Hokie_S2k... I finally finished installing the intake. I couldn't have done it without your help!

My impressions: before VTEC: it's a little bit louder, throatier sound... doesn't seem as reluctant to go when she's cold.

when VTEC hits: oh my GOD! It's so loud! It kinda reminds of the noise a vette makes when you punch the gas!

I'm not sure whether she's actually faster or not, but the sound is just plain awesome! Like my impressions of the voodoo shift knob - I can't believe the car didn't come like this.

Very happy,
very thankful!

If it makes you feel any better, the AEM V2 instructions suck as well. I had to use XVIPER's diagram to fix the vac hose's

Quick question,

Why the Weapon R? Doesn't it just suck up hot air?
