Nice! Just pick up some headers to open it up and polish the IM while the engine is out and it will look brand new.

Getting a J37 to make it fit without issues

It'll breathe better with the J37 IM but requires custom parts to make it fit, iirc. The hood will close with small spacers over the j32 stock, or you can cut out a bit of the reinforcements under the hood and it will close perfectly.

I believe it's just a throttle body spacer and something else, if I'm not mistaken. I'll have to read about it and ask Jakub, since he has his done

That sounds right. I just know you said you're on a tight budget. I initially planned to do the same thing, but $2 for spacers was a lot cheaper than $300 for an IM + adapters. Also, cutting a bit of the underside of the hood would be free, I just haven't gotten around to doing it.

Yea, this is true

I think it's just the J37 IM, P2R TB adapter, and 2 gaskets. And a J32 SRI or CAI obviously.

A lot of people switch to the J35 IM cover so they have one that says Honda.

Awesome, thank you for that. I couldn't find his thread on my phone. I kind of want the one that says Acura, just so it goes with the 3.2 cover.

The reason why a lot of people end up using the Honda IM cover is because it's about half price of the Acura cover
