Wondering is there any fitment differences for RHD variants in Ireland/UK/Aus or should it be good to go? Not seen any EU distributors mention them so will likely have to go the US post box option too

@d1390 Just a note on ordering for AU, even if you use VPN to get around the IP detection and order from the US site, the actual shipping cost is not accurate due to the intake's packaged size will exceed what the site estimates as "Australian Flat Rate $15", by quite a margin.
I know this because Nick and the excellent staff are sorting it out for my order, best to check with them first.

Anyone else has some concerns about the intake tubing possibly rubbing the radiator hose? I cant really see, but it feels like there might only be a 1/4" or so clearance. With the motor movement over time, I would hate for it to make a hole. Please tell me I'm over reacting?! lol

Mishimoto swoosh is big! Sounds great on throttle. Cruising is almost same as stock sounds which is a good thing...until you floor it 
Before and after videos for your listening pleasure at below. Took me 1 hr 30 mins because I’m OCD. Don’t ask me about gains because I did it for sounds and coolness factor. Gains are coming next week with the other "stuff"
Now just so you know, intakes are about at speed not stop and go or low speed. You need car to be moving for airflow to work. Some open air intakes like those whale penis styles will hurt your low speed performance even because just sitting their sucking warm air at a stop light or low speed. Tests have shown and proven this, and data logs have shown IATs stay very close to ambient temp for along time especially at stop or low speed. I like the Mishimoto one because it keeps the stock air vents coming through front which is a good design by Honda to begin with. Good design by Mishimoto
Props to Nick at @Mishimoto for taking care of me. Ordered and received less than 2 weeks later

@Mishimoto
I have just a few engine mods planned for my daily driver CTR:
-Mishimoto Intake - this will be my first upgrade for sure
-Greddy catback exhuast will either be my second upgrade, or third after intercooler
-I'm still not sure if I actually NEED an intercooler, but I'm planning on getting your intercooler system
I've got to do these one at a time due to budget. My question is, at what point should I get a tune?
Ktuner V1 is also on my list, but I'm unsure of what the best order is to do all these 4 upgrades.

Looks great! and sounds awesome! Can't wait till mine comes in, i'm still waiting on @Mishimoto to send them out to the distributor. With my luck I prob won't see the intake until June-July. The factory intake sounds like it has bronchitis, please send me my new intake!Mishimoto swoosh is big! Sounds great on throttle.

Love it! Will install it after being to the shooting range.
Only wish that I had gotten the stickers in black instead of white, since my car is white. Haha

Really? I was told there was a delay at their Nevada warehouse a couple weeks ago but that they had all the parts in and waiting to be shipped. Not exactly sure what’s with even a longer delay /Shrugs. Who did you get this info from? Just curious.
Thanks!
