I'm looking for a short ram intake for my 97 accord lx, and i'm seeing anything from $40-$50 (Vibrant, SHT, etc.) to $90+ (AEM, Injen). While I know AEM and Injen are good brands, and you get what you pay for, how much of a difference is that $50 making between intakes?

 

in reality....nothing......get the tubeing from some $19 kit on ebay, and then go spend $ on a K&N filter

 

Better weld, warranty, CARB/SMOG sticker

your next ilegal intake ticket would worth as much

and of course, you'll end up getting a much better quality filter.

when it comes to a couple of ponies the juice is not worth the squeeze.

 

you may still be able to find the DC Sports intake around...try http://www.optionsauto.com they had a bunch in stock a few months back. pretty inexpensive for a good intake shipped. like $70 or something
