I've got a Comptech lid and filter i'd sell cheap. Remove your resonator too and you basically have the same setup.

Ghost36 - I added Comptech Ice Box in Oct 05. If you look at other posts r/e this mod mine is the same experience. It does give some add'l increase in umph compared to stock. This is most noticable in the upper RPM ranges but it is a little quicker out of the hole. Also there is a slightly noticable low pitched growl that becomes more evident the more you stick your foot in the throttle and the harder you go into the upper RPM ranges.

At first it was very noticable to me as I was used to the quiet stock resonator box. However I am used to it now and think that it sounds kinda cool especially if I wind it up in the manual shift mode. Accoring to most on this site if you go w/ the header and cat back system you'll get the full benefit of the box. However you also have to live w/ a lot more noise. My TSX doubles as the family ride every once in a while so I won't be adding either of these.

Best part of the Ice Box - no one else can tell it's there unless they know what they're listening for!
