(hope you enjoy.... there wasn't much room on my street to do a good drive-by shot so this is the best i could do for now.)


*note* sounds a lot better if you have a subwoofer on yer computer. it picks up the low notes. :)

actually most of the sound from the k&n you can hear at the front of the car where the intake is, it sounds really nice under the hood to.

yes the DC header will make it louder... and from what i've heard, more raspy and fart sounding. no thanks i do not want that. but i was thinking of putting the Megan Raciing header instead. :)

What if I bought the parts 3rd party and had them install it? Or vice versa...buy it from them and install myself?

not gonna happen, my friend...

only way you can ensure your warantee is intact is if you purchase from the dealership and have the dealership install it.

i purchased my Goldline lowering springs from my dealership and had them install it and they said they'll cover it under my warrenty if anything happens. so i guess the only was is to buy it from them and have them install it.

so how is the TRD compare to INJEN ? i think ill get TRD at the dealer so i can be on the warranty... or is the injen that much better? sounds awesome by the way

Hey, I'm gonna assume you have a 5 spd. How loud is it when your cruising on the highway (since the RPMs are high)?

Dumb question you said this was K&N cold air intake? what does that one look like? I was just looking at the K&N Typhoon air intake... so after hearing that... think I just may have to go with cold air instead :P hehe... ofcourse I need new pipes to..

Does anybody have a link that works to hear how the injen exhaust sounds with the CAI? not trying to bring down the TRD Exhaust but $550-$600 for that exhaust is kinda to pricey but i love that deep tone i just want to hera the Injen exhaust with the CAI before i come to a final conclusion about what exhaust to get heard the HKS and to honda sounding like for my taste

you dont have to pay $500+ for the TRD exhaust. you can go to http://www.mcgeorgeparts.com and pick it up for $366

Just got that intake in on Friday cant wait to put it in :eyebrow: but i still cant decide Injen or TRD? people say the TRD is just for SOunds no real gain, buti havent heard the Injen one and somebody said it doesnt give out enough exhaust? What the heck is that :question:

Is it just me, or do the first three updated videos not play? Last one sounds nice though... but I just get an error from the first 3.

EDIT: Nevermind the "just me" part... I'm an idiot in the morning.

KINGxOFxSKA
04-21-2005, 04:05 PM
thank you. luckily i drive alone so i can have my car be loud. i'm still debating on headers. from what the reviews are saying.... all of em sound raspy in the high RPM's. :/ i dunno, i'm leaning more towards the alphawerks header at the moment.

All I can say is wow! I have the TRD exhaust but I'm looking at CAIs. My friend says that K&N is the best! So I dunno if I still wanna wait for AEM. I have a question though, how much louder is the exhaust with the intake? On a scale from 1 to 10. 1 being the standard TRD exhaust. I love my exhaust but I wish it were loaded to attract more ppl. Thanks and keep up the work!

i'd say about a 5 or 6.... not too loud or annoying but loud enough to turn some heads. :D

Do you get that air sucking noise when accelerating? I like that. It's good to know that the exhaust is louder cause I wanna turn more heads.

i got my greddy sp2 a couple of days again along with my dc sports header... installed, and AWESOME pickup. sounds awesome... but stripped an 02 sensor at the header during header install... coughed up $165 for nothing! BAH! someone mentioned earlier about a farty noise... well i get like a higher pitched rattly noise around 3500-4000 rpms, but it goes away and has a nice sound to it. i'll try and get a vid up tomorrow sometime.

It definitely sounds way better than your average Honda... this makes it really tempting... but it goes against the whole reason I bought this car... to get away from the loud drone of exhaust and discomforts of driving my Camaro which is modified to the gills and has a cage and race seats + 5-pt harnesses not because I wanted them but becuase NHRA mandates it. :)
