Decisions... Decisions.... Suspension & Air Intake

So... 08 SI Sedan.

Short Ram or Cold Air. I have no idea where the filter ends up on the 06-08 SI for the cold air. I did short ram on my 03 due to automatic and living in oregon. Then... AEM or Injen? Suggestions? I used AEM ... It works... lol. Injen... never used.

Suspension... Tien Basic Coilovers or Skunk 2 Pro-S Coilovers? The only consideration i'm seeing right now is Tien = 1100.00 where skunk 2 = 700.00 If i can save 300 bills that would be nice to go towards my Conversion Kit. I don't plan on doing a whole lot more with the suspension. maybe strut towers... or new sway's.

Suggestions Guys?? FG Chassis guys... what's your input?

Already got the Skunk2 Exhaust on the way

Re: Decisions... Decisions.... Suspension & Air Intake

I'd go short ram. I know too many people who have driven through puddles with their CAI's and have had some problems with that.
Damn you must have some money to burn if your already planning on all those mods.

Re: Decisions... Decisions.... Suspension & Air Intake

I'd go short ram, only because I know the Mugen Si has is it and don't know much about intakes. What is a short ram going to change on your civic? All I know is it sucks in more air...
