living in NY im pretty sure you are fine from the heat... Florida/Georgia/Texas/Arizona heat is probably what these companies are referring to. Northern people dont understand heat just like southerners like me dont understand COLD!

Whats the Florida/Georgia boys gettin on their cars? im in GA and interested

Does anyone have a link to a "how to" bumper removal. Or are the instructions that come with the injen cai suffecent enough to figure it out.

DIY Bumper and Headlight Removal

guys- don't care about HP gains so this is not a CAI vs. SRI which has more HP question.

Rather I just want that cool sound.

Seems like the K&N typhoon would meet my needs, no. So I am asking can the typhoon give me some of the great sounds I have been hearing out of the both the CAI/SRI videos on youtube?

BTW- I am a totally noob at this and middle aged. Coming from muscle car era so 4 cylinder Hondas are new to me- trying to learn step by step.

thx

The Injen CAI I had on my first Si sounded bad ass. Even a lot the muscle cars drivers at the ATL speedway thought so too. That was 2 years ago though, I don't know how much has changed concerning intakes.
