iono, with everyone screaming about low end, i have to ask the question.

is low end torque really that important? yes, of course it is, but is a slight loss in low end torque really that important if it's paid back up top, and more? i'm no drag racer, so launches and getting off the line at a light isn't all that important to me, but personally i think in most racing situations (track/street/strip) we're pretty much waiting for the VTEC anyway. yeah, low end torque would get you there faster, but that's 1 gear of 700-5500 rpm and 3 more of 5500+...

iono. i'm happy with my CAI. i didn't notice the Low End drop, but i did notice the high end kick. it's all kinda irrelevant since we're all talking butt dyno's anyway...i'll probably have a better opinion after i finish the bolt-ons and headwork.
