Default What CAIS?

What CAIS company do you guys recommend for a 99 Civic EX Coupe?

And f.y.i...I don't want short ram or anything like that...just a cold air intake.

Right now I'm looking into AEM or INJEN but do any of you have personal recommendations? I want as much power as I can get with a nice sound that'll make my VTEC scream

And what color do you guys recommend? I don't think I'll be doing any other engine mods except getting colored wires and maybe a valve cover. So depending on what color intake I get I want it to match my wire colors and have it all look nice

The consensus on this forum is that regular black genuine Honda ignition wires are the best, hands down. To even suggest anything else is inflamatory. So a word to the wise, if you do go for the bright red or orange wires, never include them in a pic on this forum or no one will take you seriously.

WAY back in the day after i bought my car i put a silver short ram, then a Blue CAI, then a filter on the t/b (don't ask y), then i went turbo and why do you need a filter when you have a screen .

Also i use NGK Blues

Default Re:

Do short ram intakes make VTEC sound louder than CAIS? But the thing is, I don't want ram air just cuz I want more cold air being sucked in....

Oh and I finally picked a blue intake

And how long would the installation take for someone who knows little about cars?

takes me about 20-30 minutes to take all the stock stuff out (even the resonator in the bumper) and put a cold air intake on
