with a usdm itr swap in an eg hatch..what cold air intake can you use? do you use the 92-95 civic cai or the itr cai?

anybody have any pics

 

i would put my money on the integra cai, since it goes on the itr motor.

 

are the 92-95 civic and integra cai the same shape piping?

im with him ^^^^^

get the comptech coldair, "icebox" i believe its called, looks stock and has pretty good gains.

 

i think u r gonna need the otr cai, cuz i believe that the intake manifold is bigger on the itr. sumone correct me if im wrong

 

use an ITR CAI.

 

I would go with the V2 for the 99-00 civic si. It should fit perfect and kicks *** in my opinion. They can be had for as cheap as 240 and i like it alot better than the itr cai which i had before.

The manifold is different on the ITR than on your civic. I would recommend using the ITR CAI from AEM.

 

I'm using an AEM ITR CAI. Works fine.

 

I'm using a 99-00 Civic Si AEM CAI.

The ITR version will require you moving your coolant overflow bottle (not a huge deal)and you'll also need to tap a screw to hold the bracket in place on your framerail.

I've seen no ill effects from running the slightly smaller diameter 99-00 Si tubing - I baselined better than any other bolt-ons Type Rin my area at 175/122 with only mods being intake, exhaust, and Kenji ECU. That was before the header and tuning.

Did I mention that the 99-00 Si one fits really awesome with no customizing needed?

I'd show you a pic of mine, but the server I host pics on is currently down. Hell here goes nothing:



The dyno of baseline and after tuning with FPR and V-AFC:



Hope that shows up.

The ITR V2 would probably be a better deal....its probably going to have slightly larger piping which could make a few extra hp up top once you have a few more bolt-ons.

 

They don't make a V2 for the ITR, because they have not been able to make any gains.

 

so any 99-00 civic si cai should fit right?

Yes

 

yep....

 

B18c5-eh
That is one clean *** engine bay

 

try the integra gsr intake 94-97.. juss go to a performance shop and tell them you want to try it on.. if it doesn't work... juss tell them your looking to buy one from them so they will waste there time to make sure you have the right one...

the gsr will not even come close to fitting, look how the gsr manifold and throttle body are position compared to a type-r or b16.

so like everyone already else said, ITR or 99+ si (not ep3)

 

id go with the itr cold air but u will see there are a few places that it hits mainly down by the old intake box platform at least mine does. im gunna cut away about an inch on it and it will be great. hey b18c5 can you come clean my motor bay for me? mine NEEDS it but man its a lot of work to get 9 years of grime off...

 

since we're on the intake question, what cai can i use on a 96 hatch if i don't have the hole for it?

 

dont go cai...lose velocity. go short ram with an air duct

 

I am using a Comptech Ice Box set up on my car with the same swap. It is the ITR one because it has larger piping. I love the set up. If you would like some pics let me know and I can get you some. I also have a good price on them if you are interested in buying one.

PROVE it.

Oh and what good does it do to suck in underhood temperature air anyways?
