Default Anyone using one of those Ebay intakes?

I'm looking for a cheap intake to run temporarily for a little while. Has anyone bought one of those inexpensive intakes off Ebay? If you are using one, how do you like it? And what intake should i use if im running a b16 in a 88civic hatch?

I had one on my 91 for a while. During the winter I had it hooked up as a short ram then put the rest on during the spring/summer using as a true CAI. The fit was not great, in other words you kind of had to fidle around with it a bit to get it to fit well and not rub anything. Other than that it was great. A cheap way to get some tubing, clamps, and rubber joints. You can use all or some of the parts to get it the way you want. I am not to shure about the quality of the filter but it seemed ok to me. Also one of the rubber joints did tear on me one day but that was easy to replace.

That's what I'm running with right now until i get my zc. Really I doubt there's much difference other than the filter I mean it's only a piece of pipe. It did kinda fit weird but just mess with it a bit and it'll go in

i bought one from ebay a while back..... they send me one for an Si and i couldnt use it bd i had DPFI..... anyways i got my money back.... but they are good as any othe rintakes... the interior of piping are polished, the slicone rubberss are same ****, and filter its just a normal cone one wich sucks mroe air.... in my opinion for just 20 they are worthed! this is a kind of part that doesnt has to be 400 to do same work......
