try and find someone that has the intake. also its not only important that the intake has a place for the maf, but also it needs to be in the right position to work properly. you will throw a CEL if the air is too turbulent going thru the sensor. there are some intakes that are just made wrong and even tho everything bolts together, you will still have problems. just make sure the maf outlet is not located right next to a curve in the intake pipe.

with injen being one of the top brands, wouldent you think there product would be just the one i need?...or do you have a suggestion of a brand?....i dont care anything for short ram kits..i only want a cold air or ram air....any ideas?

well weapon-r is my favorite, but usually the other big companies like aem and injen are fine too. i would still try and find pics to see what the intake looks like and where the maf is. go troll around 8thcivic.com lol. if this pic is correct, thats a good spot for the maf to bolt into, so long as there are no air leaks. its right in the straight pipe where the air will be flowing fast and smooth.

oh o so the sencer goes in that hole..lol..i thought it would be like my mustang and the pipe be in two peaces and the whole thing bolts together...so how is the weapon-r is your favorite and what are the differences?..

weapon-r has the best filter with velocity stack and thick foam so it flows and filters well. also its not as noisy as other intakes.

lol...i no it might be strange but i kinda like the "noise" lol....the web site i plan to get my stuff from is procivic. it has injen and weapon r but i havent checked the prices....neither one will cause my c.e.l to come on right?

ok well is the weapon r filter below the engine? or is it ontop..?

It's a short ram, above the engine.
