Plastic. It is a better idea since plastic does not conduct heat like metal

just isnt right paying that much for something flimsy looking like that.

Also, I have heard you need to relocate your fuse box to install an iceman intake.

I'd say it's time for an intake shootout for 7th gen civics... Hello, magazine editors are you listening!!!

I wanna see the dyno sheet for this and the new AEM intakes. Nice to see more new parts! It probably takes longer because they're tooling a plastic part and they don't want to get it wrong. There's probably alot of testing in that part.

Why do you care what it looks like? It goes under your hood. Do you show it off a lot? I'd buy world's ugliest intake if it meant the most performance.

Speaking of which, I've heard K&N's FIPK is the best intake for our cars, by far.

You do not need to relocate the fuse box. You do need to tie wrap the intake to it though since ICEMAN has not made a bracket to hold the intake yet.

Bye the way. thi intake costs about $250 bucks. I think I will stick
with my CheckPoint intake (it is same as AEM cold air but is polished chrome...oh yeah its only 85 bucks and C.A.R.B. legal)

Hrm . .seems like too much money for plastic. Also I'm definately taking looks into consideration here, because on our cars, you're not gonna get much performance, might as well look nice under there. Just my .02
