Two different test cars, one heavily modded, the other barely, 18"/19" wheel setups, one tech performing the tests.

Number one is a baseline from a different car (my baseline put out the same numbers, 227WHP and 201 Torque; just easier to find his in the system) with stock 09-11 SH-AWD 18's. Run #2 included:
CT Engineering CAI Icebox
Maxbore Throttle Body (TB) with machined shaft & screws
PnP Intake Manifold (IM)
P2R PnP Runners
P2R IM & TB gaskets
RV-6 HFPC’s (ceramic coated)
XLR8 J Pipe V2 (3rd cat delete) & Catback (both ceramic coated up to the muffler tips)
Skunk 2 Radiator cap
Coolant line delete off of TB
HPT/Advanced 19's wheels.

Both are 2010 6SPD MT SH-AWD.

I just purchase and install my j pipe, my first bolt on... lol
I didnt feel the power gain at all. But then "15hp" on a "280hp" car is actually like 5% increase... I guess its normal...

Yep, I'm anxiously awaiting it; that's if it ever comes out.

Yeah, it's more like 5WHP out of 230WHP. So less than 2.5%!

I run 2 years on Takeda SRI and very disappointed with this type air intake. First 30-45 minutes early morning car run on Takeda SRI very nice with good performance and sound. Then when engine heats up its start pulling HOT air from engine bay and at this point car down crease performance. Specially on hot summer day's my car just start jerk and choking ,engine sound not smooth. So i resolve problem switching air intake system to Injen CAI and im very happy!
For who is install already Takeda on thir car i would recommend it run additional Flex Air Duct Hose from outside (hide behind grille) all way to filter area.

2009 Accord ,read one post early above Takeda post.
Also that great idea to try install Injen CAI on 4th Gen TL, i think with slight modification that possible to have additional options for CAI intake on TL
Brand new Injen CAI i purchase for $190 compare to CT Engineering that great price

Oh ok. Didn't catch that. Damn that's a good price. For the TSX it's between $280-320 new.
