go with a sports exhaust... then you will really feel the pull, www.modacar.com should have a plethora of nice ones... good luck and keep us posted bud.

aem puts more then 8 hp to the wheels. More along the lines of 19. Look at the dyno graphs on every car out ther. Its a lot more. I would say go with hondata next. That is a great mod. or do the cams and intake mani and hondata all at once. also the header is a great way to gain hp. I have the jackson racing header and i noticed a difference with that.

I'm new to the board and just picked my type s up 2 weeks ago. I was just wondering if you considered the Injen SRI when you were thinking about purchasing intakes and if you did what made you lean towards the AEM. I really don’t think I want to relocate the water reservoir, I am concerned with voiding my warranty and would like to be able to change back to the stock air box with ease. Was wondering if anyone here has had problems with local Acura dealerships trying to void warranties for modifications. I don’t want to do to much, I want to add an intake, an exhaust from the manifold back, high flow cat and a nice throaty exhaust system and I would like get the ECU flashed by hondata.

In your situation look into these:
Injen CAI, DC Sports CAI
Comptech, Borla, Magnaflow. Exhaust systems.

I dont know if you were looking into a header but the best companies for that would most likely be Jackson Racing, and Comptech.
