FlippedOut: yes .. you will consume more gas ... the intake adds more air to your engine's air/fuel ratio and so to evenly balance the ratio, more gas is needed ...
if you are deciding to go with a cold air intake .. you have two choices ... INJEN .. or .. AEM ... the choice is your's .... what kind of civic do you have (lx/si .. auto/5spd) ?..

supyo's rite .... if you're looking for an intake (CAI) anytime soon .. you should join their groupbuy SOON ... they got a good deal ... also, the INJEN cold air intake is not bad at all .... i have it !..
I got myself an AEM CAI for 4 bills flat; Installed myself.
Word of caution, tho- YOU'RE GONNA NEED A 27mm socekt wrench bit for this mother-*****! That was one huuge bolt, only had to twist it like 20 degrees tho! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]
anyways, no complaints whatsoever from the AEM CAI. Sweet as sweet can be, i guess.
As fo gasoline consumption, with going revv happy everynow and then, no, my gas consumption has not gone up at all.
That's about it [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]
OT: WTF? Why is it snowing again?!
Peace

EHouse is right, i needed a crazy deep socket AND a torque wrentch AND a hydraulic jack for my AEM cold air. i didnt notice a difference in gas consumption. i think a lot of that really has to do w/ how hard you drive the car.
I've got the full Cold Air AEM, going all the way donw to the bottom
It does increase fuel consupltion. Not just from getting rev happy.
I've noticed it taking long trip on the highway, you waste a bit more.
