Question First motor buy for my 03 Civic coupe
Hi guys just getting used to the forum here. I have a question about my first buy for the motor. I have a 1.7 auto transmisson vtec motor. I wanted to buy a injen or a AEM V2 cold air intake. I have also heard that short ram intake are a good buy also. What should i buy first and should i go with the intake, or something else first? If so which one should i go with injen or AEM?

there's a nice, big button at the top of the page labeled "SEARCH".

In addition to not posting in the correct sub-forum, think about who you are calling a dumbass next time you forget to click the button at the top.

Yeah, but it explodes when you overfill it with oil. Gotta be careful.

ok i'll just stay on topic. Don't buy any type of engine modifications for our motors if performance is your main goal. You're not going to feel anything different, but if you want it for the sound then get it.
