A cold air intake is a system to bring down the temperature of the air going into a car for the purpose of increasing the power of the internal-combustion engine. A secondary goal is to increase the appeal of a car by chainging the apperarance of a car's engine bay and creating an attractive intake noise. These aftermarket parts come in many different colors and many different sizes, and are an inexpensive way to increase performance. 5 to 20% HP increase also happens, saves gas by using un-used gas.

Here was my beast:
Let me put emphasis on the word WAS. I rolled her about 2 months ago going around a corner too quick.. and when the road was a little too wet.
92 GS-R. Best engine and gear ratio of all integra's. Car was totaled but the engine was salvaged. Some tuner paid 7k for the engine alone.

I guess since this is a car topic thread Ill support more imports.
Since my Geisha took a dump (yes thats the name my integra had) I bought a REX STI. Hands down best car ever.
Now to pic whore her.

Well I shaved 25-30 pounds off of the front end with it. Not much, but every bit counts. Roughly 100 pounds of weight reduces gas mileage by 1mpg.
