ok , haha... just ordered yesterday... so still a bit before it comes... I'm guessing since the stage 1 makes about 12 rwhp.. this should make about 20 rwhp total??

down4it, did you get the Stage 2 of the MSDS intake yet? Sorry, I wasn't following on the other posts... you said you were going to get it in mid-November.. have you tried dynoing the MSDS Air Intake (Stage 2) over the stock?

Yes i have had it on my car for a couple of months now and it is really nice, you can hear it sucking up air when you get on it and the throttle feels more responsive. I cannot dyno over stock because i have to many other mods to see what just the intake does... I dont know if you pick up gains over the stage 1 but you are getting much colder air from the bumper and it sounds awesome! Like Shiv says, you need an intake to get past 350WHP and i already passed that so im very sure that the intake played into that along with the other mods...

ok, thanks for your insight very helpful.. actually I don't have stage 1 at the moment.. just ordered both stage 1 and stage 2 and probably install it this weekend or next weekend.. probably next weekend due to installing Vishnu Stage 1 this Saturday with Shiv.. but the Ultimate Racing catted downpipes should be here Saturday to install.. I hear that has a good boost in hp and torque..

Especially since far more civics run spearco cores (a whole lot) then they do AA intercoolers (zero). Also FYI the shroud does not make it into a ram air intercooler.

That IC is the worst for the 335 of all other FMIC upgrades out there, and it was AA that said the shrouds act to make it a ram air intercooler in one of their posts. |

I didn't say there was anything wrong with it, it's an improvement over stock, due to the better core, but that doesn't change the fact the design is bunk.
