I just bought a j's style intake for my 98 civic. I am swapping out my 2.5" aem cai for this and I was wondering if there was any way I could get cold air to the j's intake? I have seen it done before on a 92-95 civic, but not on a 98.

use some clamps a heater hose and run it underneath....

I know the EK don't have that cold air hole usually...but I believe its marks or indented in you ca have that cut out...

EDIT: just read you had a cai...just connect the hose to the front and run it through the same hole your CAI was through......connect that to the bumper near the openning....

do you have any pics of this? Would it really help that much?

just run some dryer venting up from the lower grille, through where the stock resonator hole is.

it works...sorta

bump has anybody tried this on a 98 civic? Trying to gain back some of the top end i'll lose when going from aem cai to j's.

pdiggitydogg

did it

SOHC_MShue

did the top end compare to having a real cai?

SloCivicHMM

dude if you want top end get or keep the cai.........the j's intake is great...I didn't feel any lose!!

pdiggitydogg

wouldnt know...I dont like cai because its too wet around here. but it was stronger with the piping of colder air than without

i guess i'll just have to try it out once it comes in. The damn company hasn't even sent me a tracking number after like 3 days of already having the order placed.

PHX TO VA can take a while...he'll get back to ya no worries!!

i ordered it from that sportautolife site. They don't even have a damn telephone number that I can find on there

This isn't a AEM or a J's Intake but the idea is essentially the same. This is off my GF's 98 Ex, I had a PRMRacing Intake from my Bimmer lying around since I sold the car. So i just modified it to fit hers. One of the things that I like bout this intake is that it's kinda like having a heatshield around the filter.

Edit-Dunno how to properly attach a pic so I'll just give you the album website to look for your self.

Thanks Evil_Gambit33, how am I suppose to properly attach the pic? I recall that it had something to do with the [img] or something like that.

But yeah, that's a flexpipe that I bought from Autozone, it's decently lengthed and fits right in the CAI hole in your engine bay. And because of the way my filter is, I clamped it straight on to the filter so that her car gets like 90% or better Cold Air. I might either take it off for winter or reroute it to the fender area, right now, there is a giant hold where the fender lining used to be on the back of the bumper, you see directly into it and see the flexpipe route. I guess I missed a few screws lol.

Thanks to Evil_Gambit33 and Civiksiracer1 for the lesson in attaching a pic.

well i'm trying to get cold air to a short ram intake. So i'll probably have to build a heatshield and route some dryer hose down to the bottom through the cai hole.

Then you need to read this thread if you haven't yet.
