lol....thanks for the replies guys. It's not that I'm trying to make the car "fast" per se, but just give it a lil more oomph. I like my torque.

I completely understand what Honda did in the design of this motor, and so far, they couldn't have done a better job IMHO. And it's good to know that the factory intakes and exhausts are so well designed, it just saves me some money.

I guess I should leave well enough alone, and look into doing more appearance oriented mods, something I have never done. lol It looks like I will be adding the OE Honda spoiler, the OE Honda foglights, and some OE mudflaps. I also like the OE autodimming mirror, is that a hard install on a car that didn't come with it? Other than that, I might upgrade to a set of factory Acura 17" wheels and tires. Who knows?
