Can you stop opening new thread like everyday and ask non-informative questions. How would we know what YOU should get, without giving us any information on your target/goal? Obviously you have not search because you have no idea what you are asking.

I see you have Injen CAI and Comptech Header + T1R Testpipe already, do you have any specific reason to change?

The Mugen Intake system and the Toda Header is better than what you have now, but you need to justify if it's worth to change for those parts. I'm 100% sure there will be 7-10whp more than your current setup, but for an additional $3K I don't think it's worth it. Unless you track everyday.

BTW: You will need to change your whole exhaust system as well, cause the Toda Header is for CL7 Euro-R, which the length is not the same as CL9 TSX. As a result, you need JDM Cat-back.

Perfectly said CHUSON.. Or are you just buying parts to pay for the name and really have no use for them other than u want the BRAND points.. I see your just re-purchasing parts you already have on your car... To each his own.. Good luck

it really all comes down to you. We can say buy this or buy that, but at the end of the day, only you can make the decision to buy or not.

From reading your sig, it looks like you have a decent setup now. Why are you considering buying parts that you already have? Are you gonna be building a show car? Or maybe you're gonna track your car like chuson mentioned? And while we're on that topic, chuson brings up a very good point regarding the toda header. If you do buy, be ready to also purchase a jdm cat as the toda header won't bolt up to our usdm cats.

I say if you don't really, and I mean really need it, then save that money and put it towards something else that you don't already have for your ride. But like I said earlier, only you can make the decision at the end of the day. Good luck with it.

well I must be using the search engine wrong because I typed the keywords in and nothing came up.

Thanks for the BTW, thats the kind of info I need. Your such a forum Nazi tho', i always see you criticizing people and they way they conduct themselves on this forum whether it be good or bad, mostly bad but its cool, someones gotta do it I guess. But maybe you can work on being a little more neutral in your comments before you understand why people do the things they do. Just my opinion. We aren't here to dis anyone, jeeze, we are like a family in a way, we should all have a pleasant attitude towards each other right??

Anyway, I have had a very dynamic experience with owning my TSX. When I first bought it, I never thought once about modding it. Now that I am modding it, I am leaning towards showing my car. I want to work from the inside out, so I am beggining to think about rare parts which usually means more expensive parts to create a show quality ride. Thats my goals for now. Other reason is for performance gains in both low and high rpm levels.

Just a question, what were you typing in the search engine and ended up with nothing?

Wanna make sure the search engine isn't busted.

Weird.

I put in Toda and that's how I came up with the links in the second post.

Try taking out the quotation marks. Use the search engine like you would use google or break it down.

search for toda as a single word and see what you come up with.

Try to get a CL7 Euro-R Header and bolt it on your TSX, come back and tell me it's the same...

Well, you have not read my posts often enough. Because I do not criticizing people for life, I gave compliments too for alot to those people who deserves it, even + REP.

Now you have got the modding bug biting on you, keep it up. In order to make your car a worthy show car, $$$$ (as you mention expensive) DOES Not equal to RARE. In order to find rare stuff, you need to search, and find out what others does NOT know. Act fast too. If you ask us everything without searching, and we all know you want that, how rare is it? Rich kid on our forum react fast and purchase all your rare stuff, what left to show?

I meant you give people both good and bad criticism Chuson. Sorry, that sentence was unclear. i was basically saying that I always see you commenting on people's comments, both good and bad.

I guess you make a valid point as well as far as rare parts not being expensive. however, most rare parts that I have found have been used or beat up a little. maybe Im just fiding the wrong people. Actually, I just learned how to use the search forum yesterday and its better than starting a new thread if the right thread is there. i feel like you are having a jackass kind of attitude tho and you make this forum unpleasant with that kind of attitude. You have been on here long, so give people encouragement instead of jumping down their throats.
