Default Which intake to go with prelude swap in EG?

As the title says, which intake should I get? The one for the prelude or the one for the civic?

the one for the civic is too small...the one for the prelude probably won't fit correctly(assuming it's a Cold air)...homemade is probably the way to go

You should do more research of your thinking about swapping in a prelude motor into an EG civic becuase the EG civic is so light that the heavy prelude motor will cause the Civic to have bad understeer while driving around town. The prelude motor will be so heavy for the EG civic that the only time it'll be usefull is when your drag racing in a straight line and that's what its best used for. Then you'll need some really strong aftermarket engine mounts to hold the engine in becuase it can tear out due to its heavy weight. So research some more if your considering this option. Check out Honda Hybrid's site for more info.
