Just about any SRI made for the 01-05 Civics

If I were you, I'd just buy a cheap eBay SRI and a high quality filter from K&N or AEM.
$200 + on an intake for our Civics is not worth it power wise and wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much just for sound.
All right well I don't really trust ebay..
But sounds like a good idea

Re: Cold Air Intake

I did the same thing. i bought an injen for my automatic and was pretty happy. but for my manual i bought a cheap ebay one, stripped the paint, primed it painted it with high temp paint and slapped on a dry flow filter from aem. both work fine the injen one is louder but i dont care just gives the car a better tone. no horse increase no seat of your pants feel nothing just sounds cooler. so i would say buy an sri from ebay. some dont like it but some, like me, think its a better decision.

Re: Cold Air Intake

well thats why you save all the original parts so when you have to smog the car you just slap everything on. its a bitch but you only have to do it twice a year

Well I don't want to deal with the hassle of having to change it around 2x a year to pass the smog test. So if you can get one that has the proper stickers or whatever is neccessary with it, then I'm up for it.

Re: Cold Air Intake

i'd vouch for that injen - i have the same one but black piping. Love the beautiful hissing noise, especially in a quiet dark place. Unfortunately with an exhaust I can barely hear it anymore...

yeahh i love the hissing sound, its so sweet! then when u step on it, it roars nicely. i rather turn off music and roll down windows just to listen to it, than blast music plus i know a guy that can get it for a really good price so i was happy =]
