I would just go to the Classifieds and get a real Injen or some other popular intake used from another org member.... it'll be cheaper... and you'll know (at least most times) that its a decent product....

I was thinking for the price it looks pretty slick, I just wonder what the gains are, also how much are the frankencar, and do they make the frankencar for the 01 SE AUTO? ALL I have been seeing, is for the 02 and up...

"TOKYO ENGINE is a well-known, HIGH QUALITY performance auto parts MANUFACTURER IN JAPAN" yet i cant find anything about it on the internet. thats cute..make a cheap intake, use the capital of the country the cars are from, and pass it off as coming from a REAL company

"increase UP TO 15 Hp on the driving performance" yeah ok

Don't forget that they've only shown an RSX in their ad, and their claim to fame is how much stuff they make for Mugen. I say... if you have $200 to blow on an intake, why buy this knockoff CAI from ebay? The Frankencar hybrid intake mentioned above costs the same NEW, and I'm sure you can find one cheaper used.
