Excellent purchase! for parts

Ordered for Revain and received on time. I installed it on my 2005 Honda CRV 2.0L model, although I think it is only compatible with 2002-2004 models and 2.4L only. Installation was fairly easy with the included installation paper. The air temp sensor has a terribly hard time getting out of the bearing tube, I had to pry it open with a screwdriver and spray WD-40 to lubricate the sensor so I could get it out. This adds a bit of a harsher sound to my CRV that can only be heard at higher RPMs, around 4000+ on average. Surprisingly for me the fuel consumption has improved, instead of 300 km on one tank I sometimes drive from 325 to 350 km depending on my driving style and where I drive (highway or city). There's been an increase in power, but not by much, only marginally, but with the CRV any small increase in power is welcome, especially with the 2.0-litre i4. Overall I'm happy with this purchase, bought it for $152.73, it also improves the look of the engine bay. I recommend this product.
