1) you have to cut a hole in your wheel well to accomodate the pipe.
2) after a few thousand miles or less the bracket that keeps the lower half of the pipe from vibrating breaks and/or jacks up the pipe.
Oh dang! I didn't know that. I was just reading through some threads and it seems like they are liking it so who knows.

well most people like the power once they've installed it, but not too many people check on the bracket after some time. some people have and found that the bracket either broke or it ended up causing the piping to crack

Well that will surely steer me away from CIA. Hahaha! I wish Fujita ships that thing already. I want my INTAKE!!! Hahaha! I've also thought of AEM SR with apexi filter. Not sure if it'll fit though. Most likely Saturday is install day unless they overnight that b*tch to me today and I'll get it tomorrow IF and only IF it ships today.

EDIT: BTW, I signed up for Dyno Day on the 10th.

^^ Agh!

Blasphemy! That's cool! I put it in 75 cruise and just let her ride...A few spirited VTEC runs were thrown in there too. . . Running down the 5 with the sunroof open and the beach on my right was fun.

Hahaha! I love drives like that. Did that on the last SoCal meet up in the OC area. Didn't track my MPG though.

Yea it was fun. The air is nice and cool at the beach and straight, EVEN pavement helps for the quick run to 100 mph and brake back to reality.

Not if you only owned the car for a few months. I know after a while it gets old. That means you need a new MOD. Hahaha!
