Default Intake systems.. ABS/Non-ABS

I have a simple question. Why are some intake systems made for cars with ABS and others with no ABS? Im assuming there must be some fitment problems with ABS? what comes in the way?? thanks

The ABS unit itself.

Funny.. my ABS unit is on the left hand side of the car. I didn't know Euro ITR's and US ones differed in that way

Maybe since it is a right hand drive.

Credit to kkim for pics of his car.


See the ABS unit right next to the Airbox for the intake?

I didn't think the ABS unit was on the other side for other R's. But what do I know.

Howsabout a pic of your engine bay for comparison?

All Integras that have ABS have it in the same location. The only intake I know of with fitment issues is the Mugen shown above that will only fit in a car that does not have A/C since the A/C lines are in the way.

False.

If you notice in the pictures, the car still has a/c.

So it does...I stand corrected. The information I got was from King Motorsports sight where it states...

Weird. Not sure who's car that is on but is the bracket for the AC pipes still in there or is it removed? The one I am asking about is the bracket under the air intake.

they just take the holder bracket off and split the ac lines so it fits better.

you could go hardcore and get some flexible ac lines and not worry about bending the lines too much.
