Default Hondata intake gasket...

Just wondering would a honda dealer be able to install this with no problems? If not any suggestions? Thanks

A Honda dealer should know. Although I wouldn't take my car to any dealer to install mods...
The last thing I want them to do is void any claims since they know aftermarket parts are on the car.

If you can wait a few months we'll probably have a mod session here in Daytona or Tampa and you can get it put on for the cost of some beer and pizza ;)

As of right now I live in daytona (ERAU student). I would love to install it then with you guys. The only problem is I am not 21 yet so I would not be able to buy beer (I wish) but I could get extra pizza and bread sticks or whatever you would like. Do you have any idea on when we would be able to do this? Thanks

probably when it's warmer out - too cold for me to do any wrenching.

check out www.flscc.com also for local happenings and the Wednesday nite meets at Steak n Shake

Sweet... thanks for the help. Do you know of any good shops around here? I am really interested in getting a T1R test pipe, VAFC II, and comptech flywheel, OEM disk, and ACT pressure plate installed.

The test pipe is real easy to install - 30 minutes or so. Dunno about the VAFC. Theresa at Jon Hall Honda has always been good - do you need a clutch already???

[edit] I forgot about Project 7 tuning up in Holly Hill - they may be able to install and tune the VAFC. [edit]

No I dont need a clutch but I really want a light weight flywheel. I have a friend with an 04 GTO (350HP not the 05 with 400HP) and I want my car to be faster then his. My car use to be a hair faster but now that he has an intake he slightly pulls away at speeds above 100. As you know there just are not many parts out there for are cars that add a whole lot (besides going FI). So thats why I feel the flywheel is my best bet. I also have Comptech Stainless steel brake lines and motul 600 that I would like to get installed somewhere. Yeah I went to John Hall honda and they were nice to me but because my car is lowered it does not fit on their lifts. They basically picked the car up with their hands and put it on the lift. I did not like this, I just decited to not go back unless I had to (or they found a better way to get my car on a lift). So that is why I asked if you knew of any good shops around here. If you have any suggestions on performance parts to make my car faster please let me know.
