ok the intake will look alot better when i get some actual rubber connecter part for the pipe to the box, right now im just using the stock rubber tube to connect them, kinda ghetto,
also i need to fill the seams on the lip

hey mantis i was wondering what you used to make that custom fitting for your intake it has to be one of the cleanest i have see yet.

i like the intake, but i don't like the lip.
i think it is too small. CRX lip looks a lot better. it is just my opinion.

The lip is just perfect I got that one. It's in one piece. You don't need to mod it alot like the CRX lip. no bondo means no cracks.... I really prefer that

well when i bought mine from nospeed he had to cut it so shipping wouldnt be much, so i have seems on the sides right now. but other than that i had to mode the side pieaces a bit to make em fit, and i had to redrill the holes to line up with the bumper

i was always lookin at those older civic FIs and wondering about that thing. this may be the most inovative thing ive see since the carb intake sold from webber. i think i will try this out when i get my car fixed.

hey mantis, u did an excellent job dude. on a scale of 1 to 10. i would easily give u a 11 for the work and idea. Awsome man. really outstanding. Keep up the good work and ur car looks nice with the lip. Again, good job buddy. :D

Hehe true it does... though I never got my intake adapters past the prototyping stage... so they were never ment to look nice... just work. I sold the last of my prototypes and most likely won't make another one till I can get my hands on some real machinery to cut and bend the materials I plan to use.
