ok guys, heres my problem, I buy alot of crap off ebay. I saw This Air Intake on ebay for like $10, it looks nice and all, but would it really fit properly? Also, I really doubt it gives you "INSTANT 10-15 HP" if anything I was thinking more like 3-5 hp. Also, I want to start my way into messing around with my engine, and the best way to learn is hands on. So would this be a good starting spot for me?

the problem with the cheapo ebay intake is it might not be legal in your state. The filters are crap.
there have been dozens of cai vs short ram discussions. I like the short ram. I don't drive hard often and I feel a slightly better throttle responce and better mileage. I went with an AEM short ram for a 92-95 civic. All AEM intakes are C.A.R.B. exempt, or pending C.A.R.B. exemption (50-state legal). Picture in profile don't waste your money on a crap ebay filter, go for a K&N or AEM with a short or cai. -------------------- |
