Get one for a '93 civic hatch. The piece that connects it to the TB is rubber - it's definately stretchable to get it around the TB if it's a few extra MM larger, and the clamp'll hold it in place regardless.

Actually no, there's engine clearance too...so a '93 hatch CAI might not fit, though I'm pretty sure it will (75%). I'm sure somebody else can clarify this.

I believe AEM makes kits for cars with swaps. Look into that.

Hey man,
use the '99-00 Si AEM CAI.
My boy did the b20 vtec swap
back in the day and we test fitted
a bunch of AEM CAI. 99-00 Si fits like a glove.
