I had to cut my gsr aem cai down to a 6in nub, so, its time to replace it. Does one have a power advntage over the other? I know the comptech is a little more $$$. Is it worth it? Also, what box and arm for a b18c eg w/ skunk2 IM? Which AEM application a well? I know the gsr one dosnt work. Thanks.

 

Ok nevermind about the vs. stuff. What icebox setup should I use? Type R? Anybody using this setup?

 

get a CAI
it will run better/sound better.

i think they are both about the same performance wise it all comes down to preference....its either stock looking or not ...loud or quiet imo.....i think the loudness factor should have a lot to do with it.....i have cai and the vtec RIPS ...thats why im sticking with the cai....just my .02

 

No freakin way, the Comptech Airbox is one baddass unit. A friend of mine has one and it's almost a night and day difference.

 

i it
im using the type-r one in my ek

from this angle it looks like uve got a crimp in ur raditator hose

 

using a box just draws alot less attention to u..and that s the way ud want it ..right?

 

Box is safer from water damage than a CAI. Box definately quieter. Box, imo, doesn't look as bling-blingy. A friend of mine saw a very slight decrease in power in certain spots of the power curve when switching from an AEM CAI to Icebox. Think of what you use your car for(daily driving, etc.) and make up your own mind which is better.

 

i noticed some low end gains in torque after i installed my icebox. if you click my sig you can hear it in vtec. hth.

-mtell

 

clean engine bay

 

dan i didnt know u had an ice box...thats tight...i really gotta see ur car now that i seen gazziion pix of it

 

hybrid people using the icebox.
the comptech intake arm for an ITR and comptech intake BOX for the ITR fit in EK's?

 

id get a iceman

 

the intake arm is for type-r if your using a skunk/r-manifold, and si coupe if you're not,and use the si ice box
