theres an easier way to modify your stock intake, plus it doesnt involve mutilation of your old box, so that way come inspection time, if anybody gives you crap bout it you can just re-hook it... take out the lower half of your air box all together, get 2 zip (wire) ties and zip tie your flat filter into the top half the box... we call it the crx custom intake... it still filter fine, doesnt leak dirt around the sides. for added fun throw a K&N filter into the mix (you may still want to pull the silencer crap out of your fender, thats the y pipe and the shoe box sized piece of plastic the y pipe sucks from, but its not nessacary) also on ebay theres countless MAF adapters, i got one for like 16 bucks for the se-r, i now have an AEM CAI, so im giving the adapter to my brother to replace his crx custom intake... all the MAF adapter does is allow you to throw a cone filter on in place of the whole airbox assembly, again allowing you to keep the parts incase of problems with inspection.for exhaust, another cheap trick is go to pep-boys, or autozone (or preferably a local speed shop) and pick up a glass pack muffler (cherry bomb, thrush) and find a place to stick it on your exhaust to get rid of the restrictive double muff set up on the s13... but from experience... its kinda hard to find a place to stick it.. lol, but that normally costs about 20 bucksi have to agree though with bubba... aside from the intake mods... dont upgrade till its needed or busted, i just put out about 1100 into my suspension on my se-r... but thats because i had 2 blown out struts, 4 possibly sagging springs, a bunch of blown out overworked bushings and 4 tires that were burned through the metal!trust me.. it all goes bad after you buy the car... lol... theres no way around itsave it for when its needed -Pete "my car eats all my money" S.
