We installed our prototype Stage 1 intake earlier today to test fitment before gather data. Though everything went together smoothly we are going to be making one final revision for optimal fitment on the production piece. Dyno results and data coming soon! :thumbsup:

The Stage 1 system will be utilizing the stock MAF housing. We have some big plans coming up for our CAI system that we think will be a game changer! ;)

I might have to make another visit soon!!

As for the MAF housing - I'm hopeful KTuner and Hondata will figure out how to make the ECU understand to add more fuel. The larger housing will cause a rescaling of that sensor.

Will the stage 1 work with the CAI or will it be a separated system?
This will be a completely different system and not work with the CAI.

You guys are killing me. I want an intake right now. HURRY lol
I know, I know, we want this stuff out ASAP. Though, as they say, "Good things come to those who wait." ;)

Yes you do! :)
I wouldn't worry about that, "If you build it they will come." :thumbsup:

Any idea when the CAI will be released? I know it's very early but I've been holding off on every intake because I knew I would want the one you came out with. Anything to make me sleep better haha

Any updates to this stage 1 and the cold air intake? I've been waiting to buy the IC and downpipe from PRL but want to get it with an intake system! Thanks!

Updates will be out next week once we put together all the data that we have gathered from testing and dyno results! Real gains, multiple pulls back to back!

Definitely anticipating the release of the the CAI. Hopefully it will have an aggressive spooling sound with cooling abilities like the stock box.

What would be the advantages of running CAI vs the factory? Because all the stuff iv read theres not much power made and most people are buying it for sound only.
