What exactly do you mean? I remember I tried putting in a cold air into it but aside from the ebay store sending me one for an H22 and was way to big for my TB, I noticed that after I removed the air filter box there was an air tunnel for "cold air" machined into the engine panels. I was only thinking short ram because of that... there was simply no room for a cold air to tube down to behind the front fender. Should I just get a K&N Air Filter instead or does any of you know or have an old cold air they're willing to part with?

I love the tanabe strut brace 8-)

Do you have any further tuning plans beyond the exhaust? Turbo maybe? ;)
haha well as far as further plans.. stage 0 maintenance to take care of her.. eventually I'll have a new clutch and alternator put in.. poor thing dies if the car isn't started for a week or two.. and I have a fresh battery in there.

Just intake/exhaust and rims. Like I said I installed the S. Techs and am really happy with the ride height. I'll put on the projectors hopefully in the next week or two. But nothing too fancy. This is my toy until I finish grad school in a couple years, than when I know where I'll settle in with a new good job, I'll consider buying a new Prelude with an H22 already in it and start a turbo project, or upgrade to something completely different, only time will tell. :)

Hey man,

In the front wing, behind the bumper but in front of the wheel, is one of these:

If you take that out (and plug the vacuum line going to it), then slap a Pipercross/K&N filter in the existing airbox, you'll achieve a nicer induction sound without the heat soak a short ram will give you. Hope that makes sense!
