what good is a torque peak if there is no horsepower with it? you can justify all you want, but the fact is, when you want a 'burst' or speed in a honda you downshift and use the upper rpm range where you have both torque AND horsepower. a low/mid range torque spike is worthless, you can't do anything with it while you are cruising through traffic/

true but I may be saying it wrong. But im happy with the way my car performs and the intake was bought for looks not hp gains. If I wanted the best intake I would have gotten an AEM. But this intake is better for dailt driving bc im usually in the lower rpms while cruising/driving.

Ok well I bought it for the performance but I manly bought it bc it went with my cf accents. I mean an intake is an intake but this one just is better for dily driving/ cruising around. If I wanted the most hp I would have bought an AEM. So call me a ricer or whatever but it was the best intake for what I wanted.

Ok whatever man it does what I need it to. An intake is an intake and this one looks better than a cold air imo.

You don't know what you're talking about. You're not very smart, and the things you're saying are nonsense. And I'm not angry. But you do need to shut up.
