Get the box that fits your car. Looking at your sig, I'm wondering if your motor has the stock intake manifold, or an aftermarket single plenum manifold like Skunk or BLOX. You have to consider what arm you'll be running also. If it's the stock manifold, I'd probably use the stock GSR arm and box. If it's an aftermarket mani, I'd use an ITR arm and box, or just a Del Sol VTEC arm and box, or 92-95 Civic box.

on my old B18C1 CX, I reff'd with the stock OEM cx box. I cut the part of the arm that goes over the box opening and the stock gs-r arm fit right over that perfect.

my $0.02

I tried searchign for a pic of it but I couldn't find it.

I did find a pic of when I had a skunk2 manifold on it. I don't remember what arm it is from but I did trim it.

I agree, I don't like the look of 'conventional' intakes. I'd like to hide the CAI inside one of these stock setups. Get a heatshield for the header, go for the sleeper look.

I asked this very question awhile back. Which stock air box would fit my car the best. I have a B18C with stock intake manifold and a stock intake arm. I thought that the EG air box would fit the best since I have an EG but what about the GSR air box? I dont know which one to buy

for your car get the ITR arm and any Integra box and get your self a Spoon/Monster/Comptech filter....that list is range from price spoon 150ish, monster below 100, and comptech is 60ish (yellow/red/blue colors of the products)
