Airflow systems alone can't get more than about 10 HP max. 30 HP would involve engine tuning and internals to some degree if not forced induction.

Falkore, excellent fine, except I'm clueless as to whether this will fit/work for the 03 accord..

What's the general rule of thumb for stuff like this? I figure it's a case-by-case scenario, and these SRI's don't look to different from model to model, so I'd assume that's your reasoning for thinking this should work fine?

I'm just paranoid I guess, not knowing jack about what to be looking for... On my older cars (and 82 VW Rabbit and an 86 4Runner) I just went to autozone and got the cheapest parts and worked from there... As for modifications, this is my first - so again I'm not familiar with how to know if something will fit from another spec readout.

This is about the best I could find ...... if I were you, for now, I'd just remove the resonator from the bumper. Maybe make an intake from some thin 3" PVC and an elbow fitting.

L means longitudinal which is usually rear wheel drive only. I stands for inline which is almost all 4-cylinder engines. Your mounting is called transverse .... sideways .... most front wheel drives are transverse.
