Default What CAI in EF w/ B18C5?

What intake should I use in my car? I don't want to have to move the battery, but will the AEM ITR intake fit, or do I have to use something like the GSR Short Ram Intake, thanks.

i might be wrong but i think you need the one for your civic.

edit: i didnt notice it was a 91 civic. you are probably gonna need a custom one fabricated.

You probably wont be able to use an AEM intake meant for an itr. and the one
for a crx is way too small for the b18c. AEM intakes for the ITR are 3", all of the
other ones are smaller.

Get the AEM for a 99-00 civic Si. It WILL NOT cut your power - I had one on my B18C5 and I put out 175whp on intake and exhaust and ECU.

It should mount up just fine. You might have to enlarge the hole on your body where the intake goes down behind the bumper.

Default Re: WTF? (B18C5-EH2)

Well. I bought the engine and tranny in one piece, and did not want to have to get rid of the tranny, so I did some research. Hugo (forgot his username) of the Hybrid forum boards had done it before and so I asked him for base advice and then modified his idea for my application. Took off the dash, sawed off the old clutch pedal, enlarged the hole that the cable went through so that the hydro clutch pedal would line up with the rest of the pedals and so the line connections would be in the engine bay. Had all the clutch pieces(clutch pedal assm. clutch master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder[on tranny],clutch reservoir, clutch joint adapter). Started with a HCP mount for the tranny side and added a piece to it plus knocked the bosses off the bottom of the mount(the hydro has the bosses on it) so it would mount flat and even in the compartment. Bent some steel lines to run to the clutch. I'll pull out a digital camera tomorrow and take pictures of the modifications I made. I have part numbers around too and more detailed instructions if you want more info.
