Well, the EX has the VTEC engine while the DX and LX don't. Different engine so different intakes.

please search...
some cold air intakes dont fit autos. for example, i've heard AEM's CAI doesn't fit a auto(without any modifications to it)... reason for this is a SRI proved more gains then a CAI on an auto.

the other reason is that the lower tube of some CAIs (like the AEM) attaches to the housing or a bracket on the manual transmission. autos dont have that bracket. but yeah, if you search theres a ton of threads on this. use "intake" or "CAI" as the search term and maybe put "auto" in the other box.
