try looking around Superhonda.com and Teamintegra.net. There are plenty of diy on those sites. It's also known as the poorman's Icebox.

Replacing the stock intake pipe w/ a metal pipe would serve to make the intake air hotter, which I don't think is what you want.
FYI the DIY Icebox means make a tube to run from the stock airbox down to the turn signal area, which is basically the same setup as the Comptech Icebox. I've had this setup in my car w/ a K&N inside the stock airbox for nearly 4 years now, including the stock rubber intake pipe.

Stick with the stock rubber pipe to keep intake temps down. Metal gets hotter than rubber. You ever feel the metal pipe on an aftermarket intake?? That ish is HOT...not so for the stock rubber one.

I guess if you want to run the aluminum intake arm then used thermo tec header wrap to cool your intake pipe down. If not then, I would suggest the stock arm....but you wont feel any dramatic changes with either....just your choice...
