    Building Custom Intake

    My next mod to my lx-i is a custom intake... I was reading THIS tutorial and looks pretty good. I think I'm gonna follow his, I love the sound of the cold air intakes, nothing compares. Anyway I just wanted to get some of your thoughts, maybe if some of you have tried this method. Thanks.

    it's a bit off topic... but i don't like tinted windows either... for me it's distracting.

    The how-to was done nicely... you should have no trouble finding the U-Bend.

    if you think making the cold air intake is too much work you can alwayz get a short ram civic intake and cut only 4 inches off to make it fit perfectly. procarparts.com has some for 44 dollars very good deal IMO

    Don't bother, someone is already offering them in the market place. True cold air intake. Besides, people want things for nothing and will show plenty of interest, but rarely show the money.
