hey guys a friend of mine just got a mugen intake *used* and he has a JDM front integra w/ the Hid's and he is having a hard time installing the intake becasue of the hid box thing is in the way. Is the intake for the JDM front different than the one for the USDM front car? i searched and only got 4 post.

 

It will fit. It just needs to be set up properly.
Mugen Air Box Instructions, translated.

 

there should be plenty of room for it still

 

hes gotta be doin something wrong. i have plenty of room even with the hid ballast and abs

 

IIRC there is a non ABS intake and an ABS intake... maybe thats of of the problems?
i have a mugen intake on my car and i have the jdm front with abs fits fine, its tight but it fits

 

He must have the Gen I.

 

or worse he may have gotten the ek version

 

he didn't get the ek version cause my husband has a ek and it won't come close to fitting on it. i can tell from the diagram that he doesn't have all the parts that a new one would come with.

 

Why not post a pic? If this intake is a GenI, it will not have the same parts as the one Casey posted and the instructions that Shawn posted.

That's a nice intake

 

hey guys, i took some pics of my intake for you to help me figure out if it is a gen one or gen two *i guess*

 

gen 1 intake, it is different

 

The Gen I will not fit with ABS though you can rig it in there and not bolt it down.

 

i don't feel comfortable not bolting it up, so i guess i'll just sell it. PM me w/ offers. I really hate to sell this but i guess i'll just get a gen 2 that we know will fit. thanks for all your help.

 

If you buy a brand new one, you'll probably end up getting the Gen3.

 

Gen III?? Never knew

 

Got me one.

 

Where's the proof?

Deuce...how's it different than the Gen II?

 

Those pics most resemble the EK9 IMO.

 

And how does it not ressemble the DC2 Gen I?

 

In my engine bay.

 

What are the differences?

 

Not very many from what I can tell, the sticker that comes with it sure is different.

 

never knew there was a gen3, differences might be purely cosmetic
