What factory airbox works with b16a?
I noticed the factory Si air box inlet is to small in diamter for teh intake tube of the b16. Is there any airbox that bolts right in? IF not does a 90-93 teg airbox work or will a 92-95 airbox work? I do not want a aftermarket intake.

There is no other airbox that will bolt in easily. However, if you cut the tube on the airbox shorter, you can use a 1990-1993 Integra intake tube for a very stock looking setup. Just keep in mind that the stock airbox is VERY restrictive and WILL reault in VERY significant loss of HP compared to an aftermarket intake. Believe me, I know. If you are deadset against aftermarket intakes, keep in mind that this is a sacrifice you have to make (along with worse gas mileage).

The stock box and filter elements are both VERY small. And the fact that the Integra box is the same size certainly does not make it any better.
