@PRL Motorsports Can you provide a confirmation if the 09OCT2019 date is accurate? It was moved from late SEP to 04OCT, then too 09OCT.

Thank You!

Is blue loctite recommended for those who already got their kits? Can I do without them?

I'll wait alittle bit longer for this intake, I'm sure they will have a version 2. It's like what they did with the prl intercooler they had stainless steel couple months later they have the sick ass black one, but it was already to late for me I had bought and installed the other one. Or I might get some unexpected cash and pull the trigger lol.

We have no plans on offering a Version 2 or revision with this intake system. I'm not sure what you'r referring to with the intercooler, we've never offered a stainless steel intercooler. We do, however, offer an anodized black version for a bit, but discontinued this very quickly.

Used blue loctite on Day 1. 1 month later, screws are still in tight.

PRL was also very accommodating with providing a replacement silicone tube (I had a batch 1 version that worked perfectly well but was a hair on the short side, which made me a little nervous). The new tube is a little longer and fits perfectly without any extra effort required. Very happy with how it worked out!
i havent used loctite and been on the car fine so far. I did tighten the crap out of it but i also don't really drive it too much. Maybe i should loctite it when i have to remove it to put on the charge pipes.

Any one go from a drop in PRL Stage 1 kit to this unit, wondering if you felt a difference?
PRL just opened up orders for the Accord 2.0T K20C4 High Volume intake for delivery in January of 2020.

Have the Stage 1 in the Accord already but not sure if it would really gain much more?
