Suggestions on more horsepower for my 2006 RSX Type-S? Also, any major differences between K&N cold air intake and the Injen CAI? I'm not very car savy - I just want more horsepower!

Injen is alot more reliable than K&N. In terms of horsepower gains you really won't see a big difference between the Injen or K&N but I would trust Injen more. Theres plenty of other modifcations you can do to your car to increase torque and horsepower. You should invest in an ECU chip tat will change the engine mapping of your ca. You'll get a significant increase in hp but youll need to go with 93+ octane. Turbocharger, turboback exhaust, uppipe, downpipe, engine specific camshafts are just some of the many modifications you can performe on your car to increase its horsepower. Decresing the weight of the car will also help alot as well.Ok first off "Phantom" or whatever you prefer to be called. K&N is known for making under-par products with their air filters. I know this because I have friends who have used K&N air filters and they've been nothing less than garbage. Now you tell me why I would go and recommend a company product that doesn't work very well? Tell me this buddy. You don,t seem to be providing this man with any gelpful answers or tips besides your useless and obvious facts you pull from a website. Next time you try to call someones comments stupid, so some research a bit, maybe then yo won't look like such the flaming retard that you are.

how can an injen be more reliable than a K&N?? that's the dumbest thing i've ever heard...it's just a filter...no mechanical parts involved. they're about the same. get a cold air intake. and a better flowing exhaust.

#1 gave you some good ideas. I would use a K & N only because it's a domestic product. Also, look into replacing you differential with a limited slip unit. You can have all the horsepower in the world, but if your wheels spin, you're just making smoke and getting nowhere. Check out clubrsx.com for your stuff.

Intake, Headers, Exhaust and Turbo

All intakes are basically the same, the only thing that might differ is the material that is made of. I would suggest start of simple with a full exhaust, chip, intake
