Stillen Gen 2 Intake (PICS)

Well I got a good deal on a Stillen Gen 2 intake, so I decided to buy it over the Stillen Gen 3. The Stillen Gen 3 might be a better intake, but this was less than half the price, so I couldnt pass.

First Drive: These intakes sound great, not too lound, but at high RPM's they sound amazing. I'm sure the JWT's are louder, but only because they are closer to the driver and do not have a good heat sheild. As far as power, the car seems to pull harder in the high RPM's, but I do feel a slight bog in the lower RPM's now. There is still some snow on the roads in NY, so I really can't push the car yet, I will have to take it for a longer drive once the roads clear up.

Some pics!





The weather here in NY.

I'm about to order this Next week.

I'm curious about the bog down in power.

I've seen some post regarding that at lower RPMs. Keep us informed.

I don't think I'll ever get an aftermarket intake for this car, especially since the OEM intake is so efficient. Such a big difference in torque and horsepower, why make the gap bigger? But I can understand the expense for the sound junkies. I used to love the intake sound from my Accord.

K&N drop in FTW...
