has to be the AEM CAI, no injen CAI out and the DC CAI doesn't require relocation of the wiper fluid, just replacement of the bottle with a different-sized one

AEM CAI, I'm no sucka, to me intake=intake, I also don't own an RSX therefore did no research on his car until after he bought it, over $300!!! I'm just the idiot helping a friend out.

Not trying to be rude but what I touch is gold...I do it right the first time in other words, if it's not I get it right , no rattle traps for me.

No, I didn't get the BPV. 2 reason: 1) there's really not a good spot for it and 2)I've heard that it doesn't help from preventing hydrolock UNLESS you submerge the entire filter under water. And I don't plan on driving into any lakes. That's just what I've heard, so I really don't know if that's true. In the meantime, I'm just a lot more careful where and how I drive whenever it rains.
