Very nice

Any noticeable difference in performance?
How does it sound?
I am looking for a deeper sounding intake.

yes a better throttle response . in second shift the ivtec sounds very loud
the torque feels great at low rpms when i took out rear muffler and put in the straight pipe with the tip sounds better with the intake together with those added at high rpms feel better

Oooh, nice intake and cool grill, I wish I could do cold intake but where I live in the summer it floods and my fit's a dailydriver so don't want to submerge in water. Can't wait till a short ram intake comes out wit 50 state emission legal. Awesome ride though!!

The PRM intake isn't susceptible to submersion. Well it is, but if you have water high enough to reach the filter you're probably floating.

it is legal in california. it keeps all the factory sensors and doesnt through a CEL and will not affect emissions so there for it is legal.

I think any aftermarket intake that doesn't have the carb legal stamp in cali is illegal.

eh... someone has to be helpful.

im not sure the ruling on the carb sticker in cali. it doesnt apply to me so i have not looked it up. what would they do if they saw this on the car?
i thought all they cared about was what the exhaust sniffer said.

cops will give you a fix it ticket and a fine and you have to show them that you put your stock ones back or you can get a carb legal intake..

I am going to get a PRM as well. I love your grille. I think it will look REALLY good with the red SIR badge. That is what I will do to mine when I pick up my car on Feb 26th.
