Default New intake and DV!

Just bought a new Carbonio intake as well as a hyperboost DV. I have the install planned for later this afternoon. Should be fun!

Do you install it yourself?

How long should a local shop charge for installation for intake and DV? 1 hour enough?

Hey, after you install those both, be sure to make a sound clip!

Cool touch though, I'm sure you like the sound and mabye see a slightly better throttle response

I hope the $400+ you spent will be worth it for you since all it will really do is make a cool sound. Definately quality products though, youll be happy. Try to get a sound/video clip if you can.

I used to be a honda owner so i can vouch for that. And if you guys would just start puttin some more decals on your cars then you could easily be runnin 11's. I just dont get why everybody doesnt do it. Stick on horsepower

Well i've heard it doesn't raise horsepower much, but it does help the turbo spool quicker, which is good. I need the DV as well because I believe my stock one is on the way out. I hardly see how the puts me into the "honda" catagory, but whatever.

It doesnt put you in the honda category. Dont pay attention to noobs trying to up their post counts with "funny" replies. Carbonino is the most respectable intake mod available for you and the DV is much better than stock, even if your stock one wasnt bad. Youll notice better throtle response and louder spool up and DV noise, but dont expect any real power gains, at all.
