It "should" fit, but more then likely, the pipping diameters are going to be different.

I know that the piping diameter for the AEM CAI is different on both cars. The one for the RSX is bigger. So most likely there will be a difference in diameter. It will still fit though.

Yes, short rams do fit. I have a K&N type S prototype on my EP.
The only problem you might have is a bracket that wont match up to a hole on the motor.
This one....
