HAving problem with Aem CIA

Hi guys I went to install my new intake today and i ran into a problem. My car is a 03civic EX 5SPD. THe first pipe was fine which run from the throttle body and then end. The first pipe also matched up with the mounting bracket. But the second pipe deson't seem to fit. IT's like interfering with the clutch line and the battery bracket. I took the battery out but seems to interfere with the clutch line. NAy help is greatly appreciated. Thanx.

Well I didn't receive the transmission mount with the intake. So is there any way to buy another one?

Since you are missing parts, I am assuming it's a used intake. All the part numbers are listed in the instrucutions. You can order anything you are missing. I am also assuming that the Transmission mount you are referring to is the rubber isolation mount. It is VERY IMPORTANT that it be used. You cannot hard mount the bottom of the CAI or it will stress and eventually break the weld.

btw, make sure you have the right kit. The the EX is the 21-500.

Any Idea who might carry these spare parts rather then the whole CAI. I got the intake off 2k2civ34 but he sent me the incomplete setup and I told I would get it mount but haven't gotten any responses to my pm's. So i am happy with the deal I got.

Any AEM dealer can order the parts from the same place they get the intakes.

JCiv03 is on a distinguished road
When I had my CAI on my LX, i ran into the same problem. Near the end of the CAI was rubbing against the clutch line. I kept trying to unmount the CAI and remount/adjust the pipes, but it would still be touching the clutch line. As a result, I got rid of the CAI....
