aren't those blowers for boats?

Just buy a CAI. Those front mounts look very homo, this blue 99 accord was parked next to me at work and it had one of those. Looks nothing like a FMI. Its fugging tiny.

from what ive reade about people who wanted one of those theres really no advantage over the standard CAI, infact, performance decreases. all it really does is make you look like a poser. also read that hydrolock is more prevalent. its not worth the bashing your gonna get for it. ebay intake with K&N filter

jaybsmooth, go for the front mount cai if you just want the look and you live in a dry climate. Otherwise, I'd stay away from it for fears of looking like a ricer and for fears of hydrolock. That sucks.

I attempt to answer your question, try eBay. http://www.ebay.com

I honestly would not get this. It is unbeleivably easy to hydrolock your car with those. If you want to get it because it will be getting more cold air, and not because of the intercooler look, just get a cold-air intake, works just as well. If you want the intercooler look... just mount a frount mount there .
