I have an EG with a type R motor. I want to run a CAI but I don't want to purchase the AEM CAI hybrid. I want to purchase an ebay CAI, 3" of course. I see some made for an 94+ Integra RS/LS and I've seen CAI's made for EG's. Which CAI model do I get? One made for the RS/LS or one made for an EG? TIA

n1_egsex

just run one for integra type-r application

snowboardgeek1

That should be the same for the LS and RS then. I was just curious if the throttle body position on a stock EG Si engine is the same as the type R engine's location in my EG's engine bay. If it is, then the ebay CAI that's made for an EG should fit. Thanks.

eg will fit!

The only difference between the type r and the others is that the r is a 3 inch pipe. I have been looking for the aem type r intake for awhile now and havent found it. If you happen to find it let me know please.

snowboardgeek1

Well, the hybrid AEM intake works, I just dont know if I want to spend 200 on it. I guess I'll have to. Dammit.

Hey- Just get one on ebay, and then a KN filter. If your stuck on AEM, get a ITR one for its 3" size. They are dyno proven better than most including the passwordjdm ones

snowboardgeek1

The 3" piping is the most important feature I think. Here's one made for an EG, just curious if it'll mount up fine with a type r motor on my EG.

Anymore feedback?

the eg one fits fine, i had a aem for a 93 si with my type r motor, so as long as you get a pipe that goes to the hole under the factory air box. my old old motor

B18C5-EH2

I've been running an AEM CAI for the 99-00 Civic Si coupe (wiuth the B16A2) on my B18C5 hatch for 5-6 years with no problems whatsoever:





It's definately not 3'' though - more like 2.75'' or so, but it still allows my B18C5 to put down 178whp/130ft-lbs. or torque with only other mods being cam gears tuned to +4,-2, DC JDM 4-1 header, Tanabe exhaust, and rechipped P28 with Uberdata.

If you do run any ITR CAI yu'll need to relocate the radiator overflow bottle because the Integra piping runs right there where the bottle sits. Not a huge deal, but important enough to mention.

dammmn that engine bay is clean

snowboardgeek1

DAMMIT! No one responded so I went ahead and purchased a CAI made for an LS. ARGGHHHH! Thanks guys

B18C5,

First off, very clean car. I like what you've done to her. Here's a link to my pics:

I used to have an AEM Hybrid CAI, made for a type r/B16 motor in an EG. It fit along the side of the frame rail. I didn't have to relocate the overflow bottle at all. It fit perfectly. I sold it to a friend of mine but now I want another CAI but I don't want to pay for the AEM name. I've seen enough dyno graphs to prove to me that the ebay CAI's work just as well. Anyhow, thanks for the help.

id personally go with this - dont have to worry about relocating anything, better hp/tq, no worry for hydrolock and its cheaper than a CAI


EDIT: nevermind...you already bought a cai

should have bought the carbon fiber whale ***** from memoryfab.com thats whats in my eg-R

snowboardgeek1

I'm not convinced on the benefits of the whale *****. =/

NO engine Pix?

snowboardgeek1

I will very soon. Just need to clean her up a little bit.

I decided to make an "icebox" similar to comptech's, with my type R intake. Here's where I got the idea.

I purchased all the parts and everything fits good. I'll post up pics and a writeup soon.

If you got one for any 92-95 civic, you will be fine. Im using a 93 EX AEM CAI on my 94 CX with a B18B1, works/fits fine. One thing you might want to look into though (not that you wont be able to work around it) would be that the ITR's came with ABS and thier stock intake pipe routing is different than a civic without ABS. The cars with ABS dont have the hole in the engine bay where the second half of a CAI goes. Most people cut a hole to get around this, and some companies make ABS specific CAI's. My opinion, just get one for a civic. I mean honestly, CAI's dont net you a super amount of power in the first place. So, seriously, are you gunna benifit more from a 3" pipe over a 2.5" pipe? How big is your TB and IM? If youve got a 3" pipe matting to a 2.5" TB, all that air that the 3" pipe is sucking in isnt going to make it into your IM, some of it will be left out of the equation.

On a side note, some people have had some good luck just getting 2 short ram intakes from Autozone, buying a silicone coupler, and matting the two togeather. They dont look too shabby when done right.

With a type R motor, 2.5" vs. 3" intake piping makes a pretty big difference. Stock ITR intake piping is 3" to begin with. Decreasing the intake piping diameter is a step in the wrong direction.

I should have purchased the ebay intake made for an EG but I didn't know if it would sit in the engine bay correctly with my type R motor. Now I know that it does, I may try contacting the person I bought the intake from on ebay and see if I can pay the difference for the EG setup.

I completed my DIY CAI setup. I have to brace it first then I'll take pics. I have purchased a speaker air horn which will be used as a velocity stack. It wont get here till Dec. 10th, so that will be the day I take pics. The 4" piping looks CRAZY when attached to the bottom of the stock intake box.

daluv

Ah, I was unaware that the stock piping on the ITR was 3". I saw some stock ITR piping once and it didnt look much bigger than an LS stock piping. But then again, it might not have been ITR piping at all. The person who showed it to me at the time was a moron, one of those "well the guy that sold me it said it was type r, so its gotta be type r," kind of guy that doesnt research before buying parts, sees a lable and buys it ya know. Anywho, Im in for pics on your DIY setup. Sounds crazy!

I just picked up some rims and put about 55 miles on the new ITR box CAI setup. Throttle response was much better than the AEM hybrid CAI that I used to own, in addition to more torque and more power throughout the RPM range. Now, I know this is a butt dyno, but the difference in results was almost like night and day. My good friend was with me and he noticed the difference compared to the AEM CAI. With the AEM CAI I had, it was very "laggy." I wouldn't feel a power increase till at least 6-6500 rpms. With this ITR box CAI setup, you feel power throughout. He liked it so much that he wanted me to build him one for his EK but we both felt it wouldn't fit due to his AC lines in the way.

Anyhow, I highly recommend this setup to anyone. I forgot to mention that I am running a K&N cone filter inside the airbox, and the piping diameter from the bottom of the intake box to the end of the cold air extension is 4" not 3". I wanted to replicate the mugen CAI which has 4" diameter piping for the extension. So my setup is a full 1" bigger than even the comptech air box.

I will be posting up pictures and will do a mini writeup. I'm considering making a "kit" out of this but I must warn you guys, the installation is a pain in the ***. I see some shortcuts I could have made to make the installation time shorter but do expect to spend at least 2 hours making this modification, if you want to make it look nice and do it right.

If I do end up making a kit, I would charge 55-70 shipped, depending on certain things that I won't get into at this moment. This mod will definitely work for all integra's and will fit EG's with B series motors with a little more modification. Not sure if it'll fit EK's with B series motors.
