Default First mod on my S

I really thought I was going to keep it stock for a while, but I just couldn't do it!!!!
My local performance shop just happened to have this IN STOCK! I couldn't resist!



The install was a little more complicated than the Si was, bit it really wasn't too bad.







And there are a few more pics here:

It easily feels as if I gained at least 7-10 hp, much more than with my Si. And the sound it just amazing!!!!!!

I don't know the reason why you would want a dual intake. We only have one Throttle Body, maybe ona car with 2 TB's it would help for something, but I doubt there would be a reason for it on ours.

The problem being, the two pipes have o join somewhere to flow into the one TB, and that will create turbulence, no matter how smooth you make the connection, also, you can only breath in as much air as the narrowest part of the sytem, being the TB. (weakest link of the chain theory, ha ah ah)

I forgot the member's name, but he's from NY/NJ area.....he's already been there and done that. If I remember correctly, he ended up not liking the effects, and went back to a single intake setup....

...do a search.
