Cold Air Intake questions
I am looking at possibly getting a cold air intake kit.
Do you guys have any suggestions of what type of kit will give me the best performance.
I have 2004 civic coupe.
Is it true that you can get a 15HP increase with one of these kits?

Rep Power: 302 hmm.
Get an Injen Cold Air Intake. That's what I have, and at 80+ mph, it sounds like you have a turbo.. or at least on my car it does
I would reccomend Injen over AEM, don't ask why, just go along with it. I'm sure injencivic (member on this site) would agree.

Rep Power: 302 My friend had AEM and his blew, it was overall a bad decision. Then he got a turbo 
But with my intake and exhaust I could beat him with his I/H/E, pulley's, cam gear, pretty much he had everything on his car AEM makes. I blew him out of the water from a stop probably 3-4 cars.. and he had an EX.. both were automatic.

Rep Power: 359 Save your money. Buy an ebay one that is carb legal like from the company CP. I don't personally think spending 2 or more hun on an intake is worth 5 to 8 HP.
But, if you get a major name brand get the AEM, Injen, Iceman, or K&N

So, any links to the kinds that would fit my Civic EX 2002 Auto would be greatly appreciated!

Rep Power: 812 Just type in 2001 civic intake. There are generic short rams for $30 shipped. Just understand you're getting it for sound and maybe a performance decrease. Stock feels more responsive.
