Custom's always a great way to go..

I have a Brand New SMSP 2.5" Exhaust Tubing Kit with Resonator and Cat. You pick the muffler you want and you're golden. PM if you're interested.

Search's latest system put out a dyno proven 15hp at the wheels. Couple it with their Search intake system and you should see nice gains.

per some conversaton last night.

RSR and dont' ask anymore questions until you've searched all of the exhaust threads in this whole board.

is there someother place i could check it out or buy it.
haha. i made my own intake from pieces of ic piping from my old talon and another accord intake. ill post pics i guess only to get flammed. lol.

Tee-Dot · 03-19-2009, 11:20 AM

Yeah, they've been working on site updates for a while now. You'd think they would hurry their **** up, but no. I suggest emailing their support team. They've always been helpful with me.

There was an email address on the 'under construction' page at one time.

darkstar67 · 03-19-2009, 11:32 AM

yeah i see the contact us. how much are the intakes? if its 300 or something im a little sketchy because thats 1 1/2 weeks paycheck that i realllllly need. but hp aint cheap i guess...

Tee-Dot · 03-19-2009, 11:33 AM

Mine was around $325, but that was several years ago. I'm sure it's gone up.

darkstar67 · 03-19-2009, 11:38 AM

uhgggg. if i search "search intake systems" it just comes up with alot of search options on diff web sites. i cant belive they arent well known if they have hp gains like that... anyone have a current price?

tom27897 · 03-19-2009, 11:55 AM

i emailed support and they gave me a number to call and order one since their site was down. the price they gave me was $285 + shipping. i'm gonna have to wait a few more weeks before i can save up money to order it tho =( =(

darkstar67 · 03-19-2009, 12:09 PM

285 for 15 hp. im in. that really cheap for what your getting out of it. cause if a 2500$ turbo kit gets me a 80 hp gain vs 285 for 15. thats good

liquidxnitez · 03-19-2009, 03:44 PM

Does anyone have the Search company's website? I can't seem to track it down.

Tee-Dot · 03-19-2009, 03:45 PM

SEARCH Intake Systems

Still seems to be down for maintenance.

liquidxnitez · 03-19-2009, 03:49 PM

Thank you my friend.

How long has the site been down? I really want to see what offerings they have.

Custom is the way to do it.

I have a custom 2.5" with the header collecter mod and Vibrant type-v rear end. Loud purrrrrring high rpm revs, low tone, not raspy. gave the h22 some life.

Do you have a dyno plot to prove gains?

thegamettt · 03-19-2009, 04:43 PM

They're just updating the site with more parts. I heard somewhere through the grapevine that they're coming out with some turbo parts. can't wait!

darkstar67 · 03-19-2009, 04:54 PM
