^^ Thanks Chris!! Yeah, I already have the TSX IM and P2R IM gasket (not installed
), but would also like to do the P2R TB spacer with a new P2R gasket at the connection point to the IM.

I honesty don't think that a TB spacer would do much of anything for a stock Accord motor. You can't really compare the results from an '06 Si and expect the same gains. I'd also like to see a dyno graph comparing the motor with and without the spacer. I just don't believe it when there are claims of gains without proof. The only benefit I see to having a TB spacer is for a port for a nitrous fogger or water methanol nozzle. Those things are a waste of money.

^^ Very good point Tim. Thanks.
@Chris- Would your friend be able to provide Dyno graphs/printouts of the test he conducted for the Accord TB spacer?

That would provide conclusive info. If you're serious, I would suggest that you dyno the car, install the TB spacer, then dyno again in the same day.

Do remember to get conclusive results, you need at least three pulls to get a good average. There's always slight differences between dyno pulls.

Thread bump !
I'm looking to replace my home made short ram with a CAI.
My choice so far is leaning for Injen with the RD1680BLK.
I like the fact that it has a short ram mode (ideal for winter in Canada) and has a 3 in piping. It is also available in black, which is a plus for me since I don't like the shiny chrome ones. Other thing, it's almost 100$ cheaper than the K&N (my second choice).
Do you guys think this is a good choice ?
Last reviews on CAI ( except the fujita) are from 2009.

Injen makes quality stuff. My brother had one on his old 240 and the firmament was spot on. As for gains, they're all about the same. A metal tube with a filter on the end. Not much difference.

according to this shootout, you are wrong
https://www.heeltoeauto.com/tech-articles/intake-shootout-04-08-acura-tsx.html
but I get your point, any good filter, on a smooth interior piping, will make similar results.

I've been wrong before. Not worried about it.
