Default Air box with motor swap...

Sorry to be posting so many stupid questions... I'm doing research on the CRX with motor swaps to see if this would be the path i would like to go with... Motor would be a B series VTEC with ITR intake manifold, now the question is which air box should i use??? Or aftermarket air boxes like Icebox or what??? I'm trying to build the engine bay to look as stock as possible... Thanks

the european airbox is $$$$. nice piece. i use my stock airbox, with the front and bottom cut off, retaining the bolting points. then i mounted a 4" 90 degree piece of abs tubing in place of a cold air extension, helped a little bit.

90-93 Integras had them also. On the DA it routes under the headlight and goes into the bottom of the air box, just above where the resonator feeds in.
