I've been looking at getting a cold air for my 07 Type-S for a while now. I've read the pros and cons of a lot of the different brands, but what I've really seen the argument come down to is that all intakes are just pipes with a filter at the end of it.

I found one on ebay for like $55 shipped. While I'm sure the quality isn't as good at an AEM or Fujita or something, I'm guessing it does the job nearly as good

heres the link, lemme know if you've bought one or what your thoughts on it are.

Jajajajajaja, it's a smoker with a dryer hose! Believe me you don't want to put that on a TL-S!?!

 

Takeda has an intake for your type s at a reasonable price, good quality too. Most of the vendors on here stock it. Injen also makes a good intake for the TL too so you have plenty of options. You could even make one too. Its not too difficult.

 

hahaha I def wasn't thinking about putting that on. I wouldn't even put that on my busted ass looking Integra. It looks like an exhaust with intake tubes. It simply came up when I searched and thought it was hilarious.

 

That's actually not a bad way of doing it. Surround the air filter in a cannister, mount it in the engine bay, and have ducting for the fresh air. It keeps the filter protected, you have the same air temperature getting to the engine, and you can put a small water/dust drain hole in the cannister. Much better filter protection, the same performance, and nearly impossible to hydrolock.

That hose looks cheap but I've used something similar and the 5" version worked great on my GN. I don't use a CAI at all anymore on that car but that's for other reasons. Never had trouble with the cheap stuff.

 

Anything on the ebay intake? Not the CF one but the $53 one. How is that intake? Easy to install any gains?

 

+1. Its basically how the stock set up is, a cold air intake and the filter inside the engine bay.
