Probably notice bugger all difference on it's own, apart form a noise change maybe!

I just put the Type S type intake on, mainly because I like the fact it's easier to clean :lol:
.....and it's supposed to be about as good as any out there. ;)

Maybe do that and flog the viper to recoup some more cash against the purchase?

If the A8 is the same as the Type S one I/we/you bought for my car a while ago with the K&N panel filter, then I'd go for that one :)

A8. No doubt.

K&N filter and thats sorted.

take out the resonator in the bumper though. It makes for a much easier breathing engine when you get up the rev range.
6th gen Prelude please Mr Honda. RWD 2.4 turbo lude.
