Check the latest issue of D Sport, a civic we did with one is in there. They work great!

i'm curious why it uses tube and fin rather than bar and plate. i was under the impression that bar and plate was more efficient?

The evo one is specifically for the evo and more expensive. If you can make the RSX one work it's quite a bit cheaper. Same core, just different piping setup.

I loved how that civic was driving on the street with M&H's

It was a nice setup, don't see many sidewinder style manifold anymore.

Tony is correct, the EVO vertical flow front mount intercooler has a "backdoor" inlet located in the center of the endtank and uses charge piping routed under the radiator support. The RSX VFFMIC has both the inlet and outlet on one side depending how you mount it and uses charge pipes routed through the fender walls.
