So i was browsing ebay looking for a new CAI, when i spotted this. What do you guys think about this? I'm not a ricer looking to add hp. I just want a little bit better air flow into my engine.

yeah... could be alright...

apart from all the dirt, dust, and water the intake will probably be picking up off the road... lol

I need to clean my keyboard. Leave me alone. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif The filter should keep the dirt/bugs out. Water could be an issue though.

.... another ebay part... i NEVER... OR EVER will put ebay boo boo under my hood. i dont care if it has the same effects or what ever...

just remember you get what you pay for...

and see you have a civic... why do u need CIA? your prob gona get 2HP from it and if you have a I4 motor you just get a deeper sound from under the hood. if you wanna improve air flow get a short ram intake/ its cheaper and will do just as much as that CIA unless you boost and shit.

just upgrade your spark plug wiring to OEM/ or NGK... and plugs to OEM or Iridium. keep your maintance up on it and that should be it.

LOL Someone didn't read the 1st post. You assumed since i have a civic, and am talking about an intake, that i want as much hp as possible. I stated in my first post, that i just want a little bit better air flow. That is all.

Then I would just get a short ram kit from a reputable company...AEM, Injen, etc...

Or hell, just throw in a K&N Filter in the stock box...

K&N drop-in FTW!!!!

Honda's already spent millions developing the parts for your car.

If you don't think they built every part on that car for a reason, you're wrong.

come on man, you're smarter then that.

anyways, OP my bud just bought a cold air kit and catback off of ebay for his 2k5 or 6 tiburon. I actually hate his car but there was a noticable gain just off the air kit before we put the catback on //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif from ebay too

I would beg you not to buy that item purely for its ridiculous lame factor
