They're lying sacks of shit. Try and find one. They're out there, or you can make your own.

There is a how to on this site for a Honda DelSol, but if you think for a few minutes you can figure out how to adapt the procedure to make one for your car.

I got tired of looking for one,so i made one myself. The MAF is connected right next in line to the filter. The picture doesn't show the MAF, but it comes after that downward bend. I had to remove the coolant overflow tank and relocate the fuse box a few inches closer to the firewall to pull it off.

I plan on making one for myself. Can anyone post a list of required tools and parts? A simple tutorial or guideline will be enough -- a list of TO DOs and TO DO NOTs will be great. I'll post my results and lots of pics when I do it. Thanks!

i have to question first anyone knows if the weapon R intake for the 98 1.8L will fix the 1.5L? and second how hard are your pedals my accelerator is hard as hell same as the clutch. Other than that i still beat accords, civic are no match for me. :D :D :D :D :D

Well, this past weekend I had some 2.5" aluminized pipe from a muffler shop bent to match the stock intake - cost was $5. I then drilled, sanded, and painted the beast and I thought it was going to look great. After attaching the PVC couplings to the pipe I realized it made the pipe too long, So i sawed the end off with my hacksaw, which wasnt fun. After cutting the pipe and messing up the paint I still couldnt get it to fit the way I wanted SO i still dont have an intake but I'm only out $5, the shop will take the couplings back.
For those of you out there with the same setup as me and A CAI please let me know the whos and wheres and how muches on those intakes -cause I dont think Ill be trying a Homemade intake part 2

homemade intakes are fun ... keep at it and don't give up ,,... that is what I did.
