Hey... what you think of the intake?

My car kinda acts funny with this intake.. it doesn't want to idle right a lot of times, sometimes it will idle at like 1400rpm for a few seconds, sometimes the idle goes up and down, over all.. interesting thing.. I dont have too much top end problem with it though.. Im thinking of dynoing.

Hey guess what? If everything goes right.. Ill have a set of Phillip's HID's next week... picked up a set for $350.

Wassup!

Today was the first time I drove the car because of the rain...

It is really noticeable it sounds different not that loud compare to the AEM, AEM is louder by far...

On the performance area i think the AEM is better gives more torque and same top end as yours maybe yours a very little more.

I dont know maybe I'll wait a week or so, so the engines associates the new change!

I'm really anxious on how its gonna feel
then.

Another thing in subject with the HID(phillips) are you sure youre gonna buy them.

Arent the K2 vision the ones you wanted, cause they are purple like the S2000.

I dont know man, cause if the phillips are blueish whiteish, I would go for a pair of the Xenon ultra whites $23.00 a pair.

Dont know call me,...?? !biaaatch!...

Well.. I will have to say that the intake pulls off a very distictive sound in the top end.. much different than the Injen. But in any case.. I like it.

As far as the HIDs go... well, when you can either get a dope as deal for some Phillips or end up paying over $200.00 more for the other set, you take your pic. After I put them on.. I will go over to your house at night.. pull out your car with the superwhites.. and compare, guarantee you will notice the difference big time. The HID's will make your superwhites look dull if not broken.

By the way.. Answer your phone biatch!

Oh and answering the HID question... Yes, the real thing. Phillips HID kit. It should be awesome. See, the car I had before this one was a 00 Jetta VR6... (back in California). I had put some HIDs.. except that I had to afro-engineer the installation. After playing with the light pattern for like two weeks, it was finally good.. and man! it was DOPE. So the problem is that I got used to it.. and I know what the lighting is capable of.. so I have to go back.. It happened to my friend too.. he had an Audi TT with HIDs.. traded it in for a Boxster S.. but without the HIDs.. after two weeks.. he bought the Litronic HID kit for the Boxster... he couldn't see **** at night. Anyways, if everything goes well, I should have them by the end of the week. So if you care to see them, let me know
