There are so many to choose from, my car is stock and would like a nice performing CAI.

Search next time, you can find the answers to questions like this easily, most anything you will need to know has been covered before.

AEM, AEM v2., INjen, Fujitsbo, this thread has been covered tho...click on the search button in upper right hand corner and type in cai intakes or w/e ..good luck with ur choice

 

Make sure you use the search function if you have any questions. I'm sure it's been covered.

 

Get any short ram with a good cone filter (AEM, K&N, etc)

/thread

 

AEM V2 with dryflow filter, cant get better than that.

 

I say Comptech Icebox. For a traditional CAI, try Fujita.

 

If you guys actually look at dyno charts instead of your brand preferences, you'll notice that INJEN is the top performing intake in its class.

That's what I'll be buying.

Yeah, because it's TOTALLY worth hydro-locking your motor for an extra 2-3 hp from 5,000 rpm+ to redline.

it hydrolocks when COMPLETELY submerged in water

oh and whiteonrice, good editting you dumb ****

...maybe both of you should do your research next time

An intake has one of the best HP:Money Ratios. It will allow your engine to breathe in more and cooler air, which will allow your engine to create more power through out the powerband.

there are 3 styles of intakes:
1. Closed element airbox
2. Short Ram Intake (SRI)
3. Cold Air Intake (CAI)

The stock airbox is a closed element intake. Basicly a Closed Element Intake is designed similar to the stock airbox, engineered to be less restrictive and taking in air from different places in the engine bay. Some popular Closed element intakes are Comptech Ice Box, Mugen, And Arc.

The Short Ram Intake is a Shortened Version of a cold air intake. You will see some gains but you can also see losses from intaking heat from the engine, mostly on hot days. The short ram is a good alternative though if your are worried about hydrolock. Some popular cold are intakes are AEM and Injen SRI, and AEM V2

The Cold Air Intake will see the most power gains. this intake runs lower to the ground away from the exhaust manifold, therefore it intakes cooler air coming in from the fog light grill area on the driver side. due to it being close to the ground, the possibility of hydrolocking exists. Everyone's opinions on hydrolocking are different, but ussualy it takes the filter to be completly submerged to hydrolock. Popular cold air intakes are Injen and AEM CAI.

Hydrolocking is when the intake breaths in water (ussualy only when completly submerged). the water enters the engine and enters the compression champer. due to the properties of a liquid not being easily compressible something has to give. the pistons and rods could possibly get bent and damage the engine.

As For which intake is best, currently Injen Cold Air Intake.
It has been dyno proven to produce 2-5 more peak horse power.
as a plus it is easier to install because it comes with a new waser bottle
with the AEM CAI, you mucst relocate the bottle to the other side.

Yeah, looks like I was really wrong about my information. Who makes some dumb **** at Clubrsx the AUTHORITY on intakes anyway? This is all public knowledge, it's been beaten to death.

All I'm arguing is that for the risk of a CAI it's not worth the extra 2hp gain from it. That's retarded. But some people (probably you) seem to think it's worth it for whatever reason and then post a thread on HT crying about how they sucked up water and blew up their motor.

 

And don't ever triple-post again. It only makes you look bad.

 

wow apparently everyone on the HT are biased towards sri... but whatever i gave my two cents and facts...

if no one reads the subject of the thread, he asked on what the best performance intake is and it is the injen cai... so if the ts wants to go with the sri then go ahead...

ill agree that there is a risk, but what are the chances of actually submerging your front end for your cai to suck up water, unless you live in a region where it rains and floods alot, or you live in a lake??

and no, i have a ct icebox

sooo to the ts, if you want the best performance intake, go with teh injen or aem cai, but if you dont want to take the risk of hydrolocking(at which again i will emphasize that it nedes to be completely submerged), then by all means get the sri

every intake out there has their pros and cons so take into mind which will benefit you more

 

There you go, getting all technical again.

He said his car is stock though, so I'm guessing he doesn't know a whole lot about cars, so I'm trying to give him the safest information possible.

But yeah, I agree with you finally.

 

Wow guys... this whole thing could have been avoided if this thread would have stopped at...

S E A R C H

There is no need for all the technical babble jus tlet him know that there is a wide variety and to research this and ask specific questions IF he can't find it.

 

He's a noobie, I was trying to help him out.

Next time I see one of your posts, I'll just tell YOU to search

I don't care what what you think you know. The risk of hydrolocking a vehicle is 10x greater with a cai vs sri. SRI gives better throttle response also.

Hypocrite. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/2031418

 

I gotta agree with WhiteOnRice, I had a cai and got rid of it and got a sri, why take the chance on hydrolocking for an extra 2 or 3 hp? And turboteg was right, why not try to give someone the safest info possible.

 

Nearly everyone is expletiveen retarded here. Get a injen or fujita. Forget sri, just dont drive into a lake.
