Default 93 Hatch DX swapped - what intake?

As i gather my list of parts together for this swap I got to thinking what model AEM intake or Injen intake I would need to get. I do not want cold air intake but rather short ram for increased throttle response. Can anyone shed some light on this? I have searched but found nothing.

what motor are you swapping in?
i have a dx with an ls and just got the AEM short ram for the ls and it works great. i had to bend one of air box brackets out and down a bt, but i was able to get it bolted in with no problem.

i am on umfamiliar ground with carbon fiber style intakes with big tubes. i don't know if these systems are any good or if AEM short ram or Injen would be better. Let's discuss please. What are others running on their EG swapped hatches?

just buy one for a 99-00 SI. Even your civic intake would work.

This is how a civic intake fits. Get a Type R or SI intake like Andre says..it has a bigger diameter than the d15. A b16 intake manifold is very similar if not the same as the type r. Good luck
