Say what?
As long as you got a 5speed... it will fit.
When you order the CAI, the outside of the box says for civic EX... only difference, they have a slightly different instructions printed for installing on an EX. Personally, I saw no difference at all.
I have an LX and it went on just fine.
Here is my DIY for installing the AEM CAI

Rep Power: 0 dude i just put my intake in this weekend and the directioons showed there were two different ways to install the lx and the ex like when you mount it on the transmision bracket theres more nuts for the LX then the EX and that makes me thin that it wont fit but if he got it to work thats cool.

Rep Power: 585 There is a difference between the two. The instructions show the finished pict. the Ex is a two piece tubing, at least mine was and the Lx is a one piece tubing.
