Krzys Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Integra Type R airbox (DC2) are a good OEM mod, bit better than the standard airbox too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 A decent panel filter in a teg airbox is rated as the best induction upgrade for these, if the resonator is removed you will be able to hear vtec crossover, it just won't be as loud as with an open induction kit. If you want to keep that sound the best kit you can get is the whale p***s intake, obviously as this is open it will suffer from heat soak.

Krzys Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Good thing with the DC2 airbox is if you feel like having more noise, just take the lid off, Philgor has his like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
