K&N FIPK. It now sounds like I have an angry bear under the bonnet of the car who has his balls stuck in a vice. At 6k RPM when VTEC kicks in, someone tightens the vice. WOOOOOOOOOAAHHHHHHHHHHH!

DMS Pro65R going on next week to complete the sound.

This is how it sounds if you're interested: Not mine but the exact same setup.

Do like the sound of the VTEC and think the induction kit complements it.

That noise!!

Not usually a fan of VTEC, but that's lovely!! @ 0:50!!!

Just sounds like the engines running dry

Jesus!

lflowers · 26 Mar 2012 at 16:42

That sounds fantastic!

Not a bad noise for a 4pot

Honda have some of the best intakes i was under the impression most cone filters etc had a negative effect on performance for the most part?
not that i'm saying that is the case with all Honda but its certainly the case within the Prelude circle

Do they do the same one for a CTR?

Maybe, maybe not.
For that sound I'll trade a few horses.

Lovely sound when I got rid of my cone I noticed a difference felt allot better just missed the noise the cone provided as stock is soo quite

Absolutely!

Sounds pretty loud, still undecided if I like it though.

TheDome · 26 Mar 2012 at 18:08

I also have the same intake on my s2000. 4th Gear VTEC at about 7-8000rpm is a superb sound!

The Running Man · 26 Mar 2012 at 18:09

Open cones are great. Sure heatsoak etc might be an issue but the noise of an engine sounding like its about to explde is awesome.

JediFragger · 26 Mar 2012 at 18:15

God I miss my S

Dr Who · 26 Mar 2012 at 18:29

Sounds like my old GTI-6'd 205 until it hits vtec

Then it sounds like a bumblebee in a coke can

bledd · 26 Mar 2012 at 18:54

How much is the K&N one?

I've got the Mugen airbox replica by Tegiwa on my Integra (uses the same K&N filter). It replaced the AEM that was on there.

The AEM was louder, but I prefer the noise of the Tegiwa box, sounds great

Vtech ??

VTEC is also lift

I have a k&n typhoon fitted to my CTR at the moment (not through choice)
Whilst its performance gains are questionable and the imminent fitting of a gruppeM/tegiwaM system is coming soon, nobody can argue with the bark of an open cone filter on a hona engine. It sounds bloody epic.

The system looks great in the bay, what are the performance gains likely to be on that application?

This must be the 5th s2k related thread this week.
I NEED to stop looking at them!
