While HKS makes the IC and charge pipes, the latter is not included by default. Itโ€™s additional charge. I think PWR charged whatever they think the market will accept based on their reputation. It is why my HKS IC is on order. But I was just curious why others would do the same.

How come you went with the HKS IC instead of the PWR?
The PWR IC is actually a bar and plate, and like @Tougefl5 mentioned they don't have a charge pipe option which made the HKS a better value proposition for me. According to the temps recorded on Hondata, the HKS is working well.

Splitter project slowly coming along.
The OEM brake ducts have been deleted to accommodate the aero tunnels directing air behind the wheels in the wheel well.

Iโ€™d like to hear more about your intake setup! Looks similar to what Gambit made, but I see a few differences. How much of an improvement in IAT have you seen so far? Can you monitor your fuel trims to see how much compensation is happening?
Nice work!
