Does anyone have an opinion on this 25 dollar intake for sale on ebay? I would like to have an AEM or Injen, but am under a budget at the moment so i figure i would go with a generic if it gets the job done.

Actually I have that intake on my CL. I even got it from the same guy on eBay. He ships very quickly. As far as the intake goes: it's exactly the same as the APC Air Intake that cost around $75-80. It's a great improvement over the stock intake and definitely worth the price($38 with shipping).

Hope this helps

 

the performance of an aftermarket intake really comes down to the filter. the pipe itself is really pretty generic. so if i were u i'd get it and just get a good filter. my .02

 

Usually the generic ones aren't a perfect fit if you're looking for a CAI. With the generic pipes, the filter is still placed in the engine bay which still sucks in hot air. If you want a CAI that actually places the filter down in the wheel well you'll prolly have to go with a name brand CAI. The AEM is a perfect fit. If you don't care about the peformance, then I guess a generic one will do.

 

My CAI is a generic. Granted it's for the 3.0, it fits perfectly, and the filter is down in the wheel well area. Only cost $60.00 from procarparts.com.

 

i have that one ! and i payed 36 $ (with S&H) i love it !!!!!!!!

 

GET ITTTTTTT ALL the shits are the same. If the air filter is K&N good, if not it don't matter, they all serve the same purpose. 38 bucks, I would get it. I bought mine like that, then just extended it to make a CAI. Worked like a charm.

 

I have a ractive intake that is only a month old that will fit your car, my friend had it on his prelude. He said he will sell it cheap PM me if your interested.

 

"it's exactly the same as the APC Air Intake that cost around $75-80."

It is exactly the same as the APC one i bought for $70... It does the job-
Good luck trying to figure out where to put those stupid brackets... I bent the hell out of one of'em and screwed it to something
