By the way, Your screen name is awsome! Ultimate warrior was my favorite wrestler when I was a kid. Him and Hulk Hogan of course

Rep Power: 0 LOL, thanks.
Yea, he was awesome. He came in, did his business and got the hell out of there. Awesome! I liked when he picked people up over his head and just slammed them down like a bag of potatoes.
He's my hero....
JK - But I do like the name too! Thanks.

that wouldn't provide a good hp gain
k&n fipk would be the best ... has a shield against heat and it is also made of plastic ... I used to own one ...

Rep Power: 339 ^^ taking out one bend from an intake is not going to give you power. The same idea goes for exhaust manifolds. An exhaust manifold that has more bends gives you better power. The intake pipe is made of metal and still absorbs tons of heat from the engine bay, not to mention it is a short ram. sri or 'modified sri', you're still going to be losing to the same exact cars.
and there is no such thing as an rsx-r

Rep Power: 339 ^^ less restriction. they're not "so much better" than stock ... you receive marginal gains with either one ... more gains with a cai. on a hot day with a lot of stop and go driving, an sri will do nothing for power and will even take power away.
as far as the original post goes, the "modified sri pulling hard" is only in his head
