I have a D16z6 and i do feel a little bit more power before with my stock intake. I know i've installed it properly, but i dun get why it makes my car less power. Any reasons? I might consider changing it back to stock if it's like that. It's a Ractive intake. Any1 got any suggestions?

you have a D16Z6 in your EK?

all I did was leave the stock rubber piping alone,

ditched the box for a 99 GSR Integra OEM air box, but in a K&N Cone filter (MPV application if i remember right) modified and cut to fit of course

attached it the OEM rubber piping and voila.....

my DIY intake, using nothing but OEM parts......

didnt loose no low end, actually gainned a bit low end, the sound is juss nice and deep and not loud...

best part, didnt spend much at all......
