OMG RSX Intake is CRAZY!

Ok in this months issue of import tuner they tested every Major Company Brand intake for a RSX it was between DC Sports SRI and CAI, AEM SRI and CAI, Injen, Jackson Racing and K&N Typhoon and the drop in filter.

The Results were this The HP numbers are the number of HP Gained Stock is 157.8 HP and Torque is 119.9

Brand of Intake HP Torque

AEM 20.7 5.3

DC Sports CAI 19.7 5.7

INJEN 9.2 3.0

DC Sports SRI 9.2 2.5

Jackson Racing 7.8 4.2

K&N Typhoon 7.4 3.1

AEM SRI 5.4 4.9

Stock w/K&N -0.1 0.0

After it was all said and done it states that the intake for the K20's is where the big power boost is at. I was wondering if anyone has found the D17A2 Big Power Boost Part?

The big boost part of the D17 is to completely remove it. Then drop in a K20A2. There you have it... 73 more HP instantly. No intake can do that!

AEM is the ****, no one else even comes close to comparing except injen. think what a V2 could up our cars by? too bad they dont make them for ours yet.

oh, btw...if you want a HUGE power boost all you have to do is put a couple Civic Type-R stickers on your ride...instant 70HP gain MINIMUM...no lie

Ok I swear I'm having deja vu. I could have sworn that article was done like 5 months ago in IT, and that the AEM V2 is avaible for our cars. What the hell is going on here?!

Well, there is only 1 company that makes a turbo (big boost power) for the rsx, although it doesn't seem to like turbo that much, the company is cybernation or cybernetics, greddy and the big name like are barely on the way to having turbos for the rsx... but I wish I could get 20 hp out of a intake, all of the sudden 300-400 dollars seems like play toy money..
