You could just use dryer hose or something of that nature. Do you know if they make a LH also?

That is LH. It's just upside down.

no that one is RH....... why would they make an intake duct for the side with no intake?............ if they were brake ducts then they would make them for both sides

is it worth it?hell no!!!it's just bling.on the other hand,if you're a cheapass,how do you have a JDM front end'd Integra?
anyway,simply cutting out an opening in the grille,and routing some dryer duct to the filter will do the same thing for $5,it just gets you no Showoff pointz.you could also get creative and make a duct out of plastic or fiberglass.

Ram air only works at certain manifold pressures, throttle positions, vehicle speeds, engine RPMs and intake resonances. At every other instance, it's no more effective than a CAI, and in some cases, worse. But hey, WTF do I know, huh? I thought it was for the left side of the car.

i believe i read somewhere that to actually get the ram-air effect(on a 1.8L B-series engine) it would require an airhorn with something like 16 square feet of face area,funneling down to an average size(3" for instance)tube to the manifold.
the only function these ducts serve is to get air to ducting for brakes,or to get cooler air into the airbox area...and bling.of course,a simple hole in the bumper will accomplish all but one of those things

Ram Air is one thing , bathing your intake in cool,fresh air is another.

anytime you are ducted outside of the engine bay you're going to make more power.

I highly doubt anyone with these things has it directly attached to the TB , this is just providing more air to an already existent intake system.

The ram air that you would get from this would be next to useless. I would only use for short 1/4 mile track stints. If you use on a DD you will be sucking unfiltered air (unfiltered air is bad).

I use something similar to this for brake ducting. That is probably the true use for this item.

just my 2c
