do you think the ef8 airbox will be able to make as much power, when using a high flow filter like HKS or K&N? i'll probably run a cold air duct to the air box, but do you think that could make as much as a AEM CAI(99-00 Si)?

 

Probley not, But who can really tell a difference between 1 and 2 HP? I have the CR-X SiR box if anyone wants to buy it

 

how much do you want for the airbox?

 

anyone have pics of a jdm airbox installed?

$50.00 I can get pics of it if you want.

 

yeah, can you...i wanna check it out. where are you located by the way?

 

I love my ef sir air box. just orderd my new drop in k&n filter for it and i didn't notice any difference between my aem cai and the airbox. so i like it. plus it adds that clean *** look in the engine bay.

 

which cold air did you have...for the aem for the crx si, or for the 99-00 si?

 

for the crx si.

 

ahhh....no wonder. the aem cai for the crx is a bad intake to use for the b16

Here are the pics:





Keep in mind if you buy this brand new its like $120.00 for just the Upper and lower part and no filter.

 

if you could find it

 

bryant...you dont have the intake arm for it? and those are japanese oem stickers on the box right?

 

there are too many bends in CAI's and it causes turbulance...my buddy had a CAI, the AEM one on his 99 Si and he made 11 more built **** power with a short ram

No I dont have the arm. I never could fine anyone selling one. And yes those are OEM stickers.

 

sounds like your friend was a 1/1,000,000 case. CAI make more power simply by design, not because of the bends in the piping, but because of the lower temps they're able to get. why do you think people call short rams, hot air intakes?

a short ram wont add CLOSE to 11hp, let alone 11hp over a CAI.........

Damn, thats a lotta **** power

 

he said "built", so presumably the engein is already well modified. all you're adding is a percentage, so if the HP was high enough maybe teh short ram was adding that much. still the CAI should add more. hot air is no good. period.

or maybe the device measuring hp was "less than accurate."

 

yeah it's HIGHLY unlikely to net 11hp from a damn short ram.

so does K&N make a panel filter for that airbox? JDM? anyone? part number?

 

I'll stick with my AEM short ram tube and A'pexi filter.

 

I'm a fan of stock airboxes filled with a K&N drop-in......clean stock look, better breathing than a CAI imo, and a nice clean growl, not a ricey fat intake sound. All of my cars get this setup.

Not to be a dick , but your opinion isn't dyno-proven

But hell yeah, it's got a nice growl with a slightly modded stock airbox
