Well if you are really using it to race with they keep heat from escaping so the engine bay is a TINY bit cooler but for regular road use for the BLING only. And they may last a bit longer but the stock ones are good for over 100,000 miles so it may be a moot point.

I meant the portion on the left of the intake pipe with what looks like a big black cap of some kind.

Name is Adam, I'm 29, got my '07 GD about a year and a half ago and its the 14th car I've owned. This is my second Honda, as I owned an '07 Laguna Blue S2000 a few years ago and miss it.

First mod was just yesterday. Bit of a spur of the moment thing, as I needed new tires, saw a set of GE 16in wheels on craigslist locally, and scored them for $130.

They were horribly painted over the factory paint, first SI blue, then some kind of graphite, which ended up chipping off. Took them back down to aluminum and think they look great.

Depends if you want to keep it afterwards or not. I just used a flat head and pried it off.
