I am going to be purchasing an intake soon and i need opinions and please choose the SRI that you think will produce the most Horsepower!!

And just to save some posts....
1.) I know they don't make a LOT of hp but pick the best you think would
2.) I don't want a CAI
3.) I want to bolt it straight on out of the box so please no modified stuff
4.) I don't want to buy in intake off of eBay

Thanks guys! for everything and if you could give any review of your intake that would be awesome too!!

 

They all make about the same power, with in 0.5hp of each other if that. The filter is more important and good air ducting if you have to go with short ram intake.
Just get what ever one suites your budget and looks like the style you are after.
Preferable non metal,(carbon fiber or fiber glass) as these wont be affect by heat soak as much.

Iv tryed. AEM, generic whale ***** and custom stainless ones on dyno and they all made the same power. Cold air intake on the other hand were more prone to bad designs have less power because the extra length and turns. With the generic trademe(ebay) one making 2hp less then the custom stainless one which made the same as the short ram. Im sure results would be different with the hood closed with the short rams making less due to heated intake air.

 

Generally, what sort of gains are you going to be looking at with an SRI?

 

they're all the same to me really. but i voted for the whale ***** lol. K & N has the best air filters though no doubt. they suck in more air from what i saw on tv

 

are any of these worth even 1hp over a factory box with a K&N and the tank removed?

 

i would go cold air instead

 

Some magazine did this very test a few years ago, and found that some intake from A'PEXi accounted for the most power gains. It may have just been a Comptech Icebox-style intake with the A'PEXi filter in the box or something.

 

run a velocity stack if you want the most power

 

here is an article i did for h22's
v2= 182.07
stock with resonators removed and OE filter = 181.86
Type S with no resonators and a dirty K&N drop in = 181.76
really short, SRI with BPi flowstack = 175

cold air is where it is at:

i think the best intakes for the integra that i have seen tested is the j's racing intake and the AEM V2 CAI. AEM V2 got better results but it was pretty close between the 2.

 

i have yet to see any of the "whale *****" intakes be more functional than cool looking.

 

I would go with the PDJDM whale *****. whynot...Looks good, performs well..

 

i vote for the comptech, thats what i have and i believe it to be the best

 

the comptech is the one that is basically the stock intake arm and a modified air box right? I would likely vote for that one.

 

OP, to what engine are you adding this? I think this has been done in the ITR forum for the B18C5.

 

im runnin a DC2 w/ B18C1

 

what is the real difference in comptech icebox and stock?

 

whale dick!!!!

 

cheap 3 inch ebay pipe + bpi velocity stack/k&n combo would be my choice

 

i second this. blox makes velocity stacks as well.

 

i'd rather give my money to bpi as he put the time and effort in designing the stack. Just to have blox copy the design.

 

make your own 4" intake. i did it once on my other car and it worked out great ha.

or go whale ***** or AEM V2!!

 

It all depends on your build. Tune the length and diameter if you're serious. Otherwise, just pick something that's legal and isn't too big (dia.).

 

i would like to see a picture of this whale *****, to see why its called a whale *****

 

true that.My Teggy made an extra 5whp on the dyno with a velocity stack.I have the Blox velocity stack/filter combo on my AEM SRI
