most any cold air intake will fit any car, (mostly) maybe some long 1 peace ones would not, but if its 2 peaces then you can bend stuff around to fit. all you need for an CAI is some short metal pipes with odd angles and silicone mid peaces with ties, the rest is just in the placement.

Yea there are alot of people who claim different intakes fit our cars. But no one ever post pictures of there altered intakes. I personally think its a horrible hack job, and they are too embarriss to show what it looks like after they have installed it.

lol, its just piping, there is no hacking about it, no need to cut the pipes if there short, even if you did cut the pipe to get it to fit, the edges would be covored from the silicone mid peaces.

my current intake is the top peace of my full CAI that goes to the bumper, it just goes out from the intake and makes a turn to a filter where the stock box would be. nothing fancy

kits like thoes are a bit car spacific, you could get them to fit but not withough cutting the big long peace, plus its a horrible idea to put an open filter underneath like that, you will suck in water and crap from the road will hit the filter.

anyone got pics of the 90-93 accord cold air intake as well???

rumored that the tiburon intakes works also... But no pictures to prove it.

what i mean by a hack job is.. the silcon coupling would be doing most of the bending and not the metal piping. It will stress out the coupling and make it rip. Another hack job is when they manuelly bend the piping making the piping loose it shape. that sort of thing.. hack job.

I bought a civic CAI from ebay. One of the cheap ones. Never got it. Seller dissapeared from the face of the earth. Got half money back from ebay.

the cai for a 92-95 civic works.. but it looks a bit odd and when you put it through your fender at the bottom it hits a peace of the frame/uni design. It rattles of bumps an stuff.. Im going to replace it now with a custom one im going to make with exhaust tubing.

here is a pic.

is it easier to buy the mandrel piping, couplings, filter and make it or modify the hondas??

[blackbullet]

i have a civic cold air intake...its for a 96 civic hatchback...its the one that goes and mount to the front but i used just one of the pipe and cut it...to get a sort of like 90 degree so it can go down and clamp the intake on...pics in profile....

[macavely]

its not a CAI just a short ram...but it is from a 92-95 civic.. and fits perfect..

What happend to that guy who made one out of the accord one? I'd have liked if this was made into a "how to." I thought it was very well done. I'm searching for it, I'll edit it into this post if I find it.

[Hanyo]

I figured that since we are talking about intakes, i might as well throw in my mandrel bend pipe post..

price from different sites

Any one remember the accord one? Modderators? Did I just imagin this or somthing? Or am I just being dumb about looking it up and passing it over somehow?

have you seen my how to? pix are in the thread. It was done using accord piping. Check it out man.

opps seems i didnt read all the other post. lol yup the link for my how to is up there. Its currently pending approval to be in the how to section.

btw thanks to soltrain for bumping that thread up

after thought... i sure am going to miss the sharp throttle responce and the nice low pitch noise of my cai when i got turbo. O well at least ill have the loud exhaust.
