well im an old 3g accent owner so this was the first on my list of mods.

sounds amazing and definately fells like there is more torque.

3" pipe and AEM filter stuck down on the drivers side right behind the fog light (GL moddel opted for a bull bar and auxillary fog instead)

with 3500 km on it i get 700km to the tank city (8.9L/100km) so im waiting for the 10k mark for full break in.

i will wait for a couple more tanks to verify FE improvement but so far looks like mild gains

after a couple tanks im going to cut into the plastic fog light insert and feed cold air directly into that area. put a shild inbehind it to direct the wind away from the filter and put a hydro sock on to protec from the mist. i think i will make it so i can control the air flow for open and closed. that way in a rain storm i can drive and not worry about rain soaking the filter.

dealership guy saw it and thought it was awesome. no warrranty issues had it on for 3000km no issues.
