Default Need a new intake

Well, I am in need of a new intake or just a filter. I have thought about just buying a filter like a K&N, Apex'i or maybe even a JSR (JDMsh!t) Mushroom Filter. Which one has better air flow? The piping I have on right now is aluminum, probably eBay or Autozone brand, not sure, came with the car.

Another option I have thought about is buying an OEM or CTR Airbox and putting in a drop-in filter. Question is, will the Airbox fit in my EM1 without any modifications if I get a CTR Airbox? Or should I just go out and buy a Password or Memoryfab CF Intake? Which would be the better option for better gains and sound? Thanks and any help is appreciated.

I like the huge tube design of the J's racing CF intake....plus I like to run it safe without hydrolock my expensive motor.

get what ever you prefer on the intake design.

Yeah, I like the design of the J's Racing Style. I might go with the Password or Memoryfab intake, anybody got one of these? How is it? Sound, performance, etc..

Don't have one personally, but I've heard nothing but good things about both.

Both are sponsors here.

Get a K&N Drop-In replacement. Save your $150+ for something worth.

How is it when VTEC engages? Heh, actually, I plan on getting a new exhaust. The one I have right now came with the car and well, it's crap.
