Whats Up recently got me a integra with a b18b1 , came with some weak intake, which intake would be best?...Anyone?

 

and what about your current intake makes it "weak"?

 

What state are you located in? If it's calfornia, you have to carb approved intake= $$$

Any other state you can simply build your own and buy a tube and a quality filter. Or just buy an ebay intake, toss the filter and put a good filter on.

Unfortunately I'm located in cali and had to fork out the cash.

 

^This. That's what i did. Cost me $70 in the end, more then half the cost of brand name intakes for the same performance.

 

Im In Los Angeles, And As For My Intake idk It Just looks Pretty Crappy, Probly just Need ANEw Filter But Since I Just Bought This Car I Was Thinking Just Replacing it With an AEM or Injen?

 

Whale *****

 

How Much Better Is Cold Air?

 

Pics of intake?

 

x2

 

Just a tad because cold air is denser, but seriously there will be absolutely no gains without tuning. Even more importantly: what build do you have right now and what are your plans in the future. You wont need that intake if you want to go FI.

 

well My Car is slammed pretty damn low, so idk if the cold air would probly get wet in puddles and stuff? but i got a b18b1 with a b16tranny not too sure what else i just recently bought it i do know it has a p75 ecu and some other stuff i dont really remember..

 

My car is slammed pretty low too, just avoid gigantic puddles, my cai in fine.

Your in LA? So does the intake you have on right now CARB approved?

 

yes im in LA i dont think it does, it looks like a crappy auto zone intake maybe a new fliter? or should i just replace the whole intake?

 

You have two options depending on what you want to do in the future.

Buy a stock intake and swap out every 2 years for smog (Cheaper option)

Or

Buy a carb legal intake (expensive option)

 

Yea I was thinking the carb legal, aem or injen maybe?

 

CAI is not necessary and get away from needing something "name" brand. Are you looking for kudos from your buddies or something? Bling points if you will. All you need is a 3" short ram pipe, v-stack, filter of choice. That is the best set-up for n/a b-series.

Dont waste the money for a whales ***** "power chamber" haha...had one on a b16a and just not worth it.

 

anything over like $50 bucks is overpriced for an intake imo lol.

 

I'm just looking to show my car some love, I could leave the **** one it has now but id rather not but thanks for the advice .
