can't buy and can't buy. you don't own a honda...

normal intakes can be found on lots of stores.

if you have an 89+ just buy a big K&N filter with a 2.75" hole. if you have an 86-88 then you need an adapter. cheap off ebay. better ones from HKS.

The best high-performance mass airflow sensor is none at all, lol. See our Engine Management forum for information on various engine management systems (EMS), such as Haltech, Wolf, Microtech, etc. Plan on spending about $500 for professional tuning on top of the price of the EMS.

I don't put much faith in that article. Their testing procedure is unscientific, it is not in accordance with SAE J726 guidelines, and since I have no idea who these guys are, I assume that they are Apexi vendors who made a nice infomercial that somehow made it onto the internet.
