PerfectXtreme said:I haven't done this exact mod... as I went right to a CAI system.. However I can tell you now... Any modding... as far as opening the intake up... is going to give you louder turbo spool... and higher pitched sound...
Our air is sucked in through the turbo setup.. so thats what you'll hear... And its a 4 cyl engine to boot.... Even on my 2.0L civic swap.. my intake gave it a higher pitched sucking sound (but no turbo spool)....
if you want deep growl.. leave intake as in... as mess with the exhaust... But i'd be careful doing that even.. stock exhaust is really nice... smog control sux... but other than that its a good setup....
The only aftermarket MS6 exhaust i've heard clips of was magna flow I think... And to be honest... sounded almost like the stock exhaust does... Not worth the money unless a huge performance boost is gained....

CreatureCore said:The sound of the ms6 (or should i say the lack of) is the only thing that bothers me outside of our seats not having much upper body support.
I did the mod and I think there is a noticeable but marginal difference in sound. Kind of a PITA removal since access to the bolts is pretty convoluted. Much harder than shown in instructions the regular 6 which I had in hand. I'm leasing too, and the only reason I haven't put it back is I figure it will be an equal PITA.stillflat4 said:It's odd that you metion the upper body support. I have never had back pain, and recently my whole upper back has felt totally messed up. Now that you mention it, the onset seemed to coincide with my buying the car...
Uh oh...
VinnieBeachbum said:Just wondering If I should tape the tuba area back up? More air the better right? I have air from the front of the engine bay and the wheel well now. Just wondering what everyone else has done.
