Default injen cai + rsx

i wanna get an injen CAI for my rsx base.
i looked on ebay just to see what my options are,
and i noticed that there are only CAI for type-s and base MT
do they have an injen CAI for the base AT?

and is injen the way to go if i have the money?

injen is IMO the best and CRSX has dyno's vs the AEM and it tested the best

As far as I know there isn't a difference. I would go for the Type-S intake because sometimes the piping diameter is smaller for the k20a3.

I said as far as I know there isn't a difference beside stating that sometimes the intake piping diameter is larger for the Type-S. I did notice that they have different part numbers but I'm not positive that they're different enough to not be interchangeable. I don't know if I'm helping so I'll stop since I don't have the positive answer lol.

well the intake manifolds are different on a base and a type-s... so position/location of the throttle body might be different and thats why different part numbers. In most cases if they have different part numbers its for a reason....intake might not clear the auto tranny or bolt/mount up correctly?

The one for the Rsx base MT will be the same as the base AT. Just buy a cheap intake and go get a good filter for it.

They do have Injen CaI for base AT.
I dont think it matters if its base AT or MT...it should still work...
Correct me if I'm wrong...
