AEM makes intakes that fit well with a swap. Their quality is really high as well, so i would say they are almost worth the money.

Otherwise, most of the ebay intakes will likely work, just don't use the filter that those kits come with because they are usually junk.

Exactly - I use AEM intakes... at least until I turbo it... I keep one laying around just so I can use it for a short time to check out the swap/ built motor. :smiley:

i went to napa (a few years ago) and bought an off the shelf intake labeled for a 93 Integra. The bends where perfect only downside was it was too long. i had to cut like a 6-8in strait peice out of the middle section and bought a 3in-3in coupler. The coupler was in the perfect spot to insulate the pipe to protect it from a battery short. all in all the whole setup cost me 67.99 from a local part store and about 20 mins of my time to make it fit right.

this pic is from like 4 years ago.


note: does work with a b series i later swapped in a b18a1 and needed no modifications to the intake.

Screw the AEM intake, I got rid of mine in favor of an actual OEM EE8 (EF8 UK model with B16). It's Beefier and I prefer the oem look. I feel no difference with this intake compared to the AEM.

Ebay one will fit with some trimming or, make your own it's rather simple only need some 3" pipe and measuring you can buy mandril bent pipe for quite cheap.
