Nope, don't even try. And the reason they didn't make one is it didn't provide any better gains than the SRI. Most intakes will take away low end power anyway.

HAH... the injen one is a excellent intake and it will give you gains right up there with the aem cai.. i have injen and i pull more hp with it then most people do with their aem cai. But my difference is that i have direct forced cold air intake.. it work well with my body kit

I dought it would even fit if they decided to make it like the aem cai the auto tranny is huge compared to the spd. I had a sri on my auto and a cai on my manual and the sri felt like it didnt do anything but loose low end. The cai lost a little low end but gained a little high end

i love my cai the sound is just awsome. At least twice as loud and better sounding than the sri. The sri is really high pitched sounding and not that loud while the cai is deep and loud. It sounds like it has acual vtec when you get on the pipe.

The sound of my intake is twice as loud as you will ever hear cause it hits right on the front bumper grille... Anyways you can find the injen cold air induction system pretty much anywhere i ordered mine from www.planetperfornamce.com they order from injen themselves so you are sure to get everything you need for the install.. and also a good set of instructions.. If you need help putting it on just ask i am off on weekends...
