I'm using an ITR CAI and fits very well. It'll fit nicely in EK's too

AEM cai Type R cai 3"
AEM cai Prelude VTEC 2.75"
AEM cai Si 2.5"
Comptech Icebox
Stock ITR airbox
J's Racing (never seen) but im sure would work

even a 92-95 Civic EX/Si CAI will work as well. Just no point because the tubing is smaller

I personally don't think it will make too much of a difference if you switch. save your money and put it into something else other than another intake

Hydro-lock is when water (rain water) gets in to the cylinder(s). water can not be compressed so some else has to give (bent rod, cracked block, etc.). The intake bypasses only work if the intake in filled with water. People have hydro-locked their motors with a bypass on the intake. If it was me, I would buy a short ram if it rains a lot or take the CAI and cut it like a short ram then when rainy season is over just buy a extra elbow and connect the side that you cut off and you will have short ram again.

Hmm, that's gonna be tricky. It sure looks like it'll fit. Do you have the battery relocated? It'll open up a ton more room with that.
