hello all. did my aem intake install today with some instruction from be17jamln and hyperpm. thanks guys! it took around 3 hours and got some pics here. pretty fast 3 hours and a easy install.
take off the stock box... here's it with just the box. remove that junk.
. then i went to not take anymore pictures (sorry guys) because i was busy working on it. 
, anyways, just remove the undertray, and u only have to cut one small portion of it. if u remove the undertray and then put the intake in, this can be done. here's some pics of it finished, use it for reference if ya want.

haha thanks. oh yea, do u have that rubber connector? that u can put in place of the by-pass valve? cuz i was driving it yesterday and the sound is pretty mcuh the same.. probably cuz i left the stock airbox off for like half a year before i put this on.
impressions of it tho: sounds ok, bit louder than without the stock airbox on, can tell that throttle response is better, vtec transition also seems smoother, and throughout the powerband it feels that it revs smoother as well.

Anyhow, on the others' prodding, I went ahead and got the Injen CAI...
