Does any body know good intakes that fit good in our cars that are not AEM OR INGEN. Does anybody have pictures of those other intakes.

i bought the importech CAI of of ebay a while ago
looks just like the AEM one
sounds and looks good to me.
i went to a local performance shop and bought blue rubber couplers to match the paint job instead of the yellow one provided

I have the same one as Speedracer32, with taxes and install: it was a bit less than $250CDN
good sound but about the performance,
Something like 7hp depending other mods you have.

Hey, you need to check parts because there is a generous listing of different intakes besides AEM and INJEN

Iceman makes some really good intakes for the 7th gen Civic. I have an Injen and I love it. From what I have heard Iceman are really good and not to expensive.

CapYoda has a spectacular aura aboutCapYoda has a spectacular aura about
since it is an AEM replica... try this DIY:

I would recommend for those with the importech ebay CAI to buy a better filter... the one they have pictured seems to be VERY cheapy.
