Re: lightest rims

The 15x7 volk te37 are 10.2 lb each, which is not the lightest, they look pretty good though.

Re: lightest rims

do you even have a reason to have that much rubber on the ground??? It sounds like you just bought an intake, i would buy rims that big when its needed (unless you come across a huge deal) , and i doubt you have the money for rims like that, unless grandma passed away or something. Unless your getting one of those intakes that adds like 200hp....cuz everyone claims astonishing hp gains lol. when its really like 3 hps if that.

...

the Injen Dyno graphs...show like 13.9 average and a 20+ HP jump at 5200 RPM...Import Tuner did a Intake show down on an RSX and the AEM CAI V2 put down a 21 HP (i think)
Injen 20 HP

I can get a scan of the mag or show you the results

K and N GOT THE WORST 0 HP gain and -.1 TQ !!! WTF at least put some R&D into it!

want to know what an Injen will do on a S2000? -3HP! So how does a 20HP gain on an RSX (at VTEC Kick in) relate to the KA? It doesnt at all. Like it or not the KA24DE or the SR20DE (to be fair) are nowhere near the beast of a N/A the K20 is. If you get more than 5HP consider yourself lucky and if you expect more than 10HP your in for a shock.


I have that issue and as I recall all of the Short Ram Intakes faired poorly. Plus I belive AEM outsources to K&N for their filters.
