So PRL, Injen, Misimoto, aFe all make intercoolers and they all seem to have stats that I cant compare against each other is there a way to decipher which one is the best. Money is not an issue as i seem to have to keep explaining to people when i post, this is not in reference to you is in reference to someone whos only argument as to why one part i was looking at was not worth the buy cause it was overpriced, im not looking for a budget build im looking for tried and true quality, Fitment and of course a little eye candy never hurt either. Also my aFe parts arrived today will be updating with results.Haven't seen many reviews for AFE exhaust bolt ons, because not many have bought them, likely due to the high price tag compared to the competition (PRL & RV6), which make proven quality parts, with honest performance data.
Running a BOV on this platform is a waste of money, and detrimental to your car.
I also live in Houston and understand completely about running a CAI. If you don't wanna run a CAI, anything other than a Silicone Hose and high flow air filter, is pretty much a waste of money.
PRL has consistently proven to have the parts that make the most gains. With that said, fuel, and a tune are the best power makers for this platform.
Using Hondata over Ktuner is not recommended on this platform by anyone who is truly informed.
CVT cooler is a waste of money unless you plan to run the car hard around a race track (not drag racing), or plan to push the car to it's absolute limits, which would involve turbo upgrades, built internals, etc . Intercooler would be a more worthwhile investment if you want to make more consistent power, especially for back to back runs and pulls.
