Short Ram Intakes for R18

06 Civic Ex · 07-14-2008, 05:37 PM

Im basically sold on the fujita short ram but whats the best place to buy it off of.

the lowest price ive been offered was 170 shipped brand new.

does anyone know where they can beat that price.

also hows the injen and aem?

check out weapon r. It's not too bad

06 Civic Ex · 07-14-2008, 05:47 PM

weapon r intakes are pathetic

quality sucks and they make u lose HP.

tomasro · 07-14-2008, 05:57 PM

hmmm...well it was just a suggestion. And if you really want to get power, you should think about trying to extract it out of a car more designed for power. Our R18's are really meant for fuel economy.

I've tried the engine modding thing, and it really doesn't respond well unless you are willing to spend a good amount of money tuning. The gains on an intake aren't worth the hassle really. But that's just speaking from experience....

Best power for the price for the R18 is the turbo kit from ProCivic. But it too requires some tuning.

06 Civic Ex · 07-14-2008, 06:19 PM

im not looking for the power cuz obviously this isnt the platform.

im just looking for a little extra noise and no CEL and keeps me around the same HP.

K&N all the way. It looks and sounds great IMO and they guarentee a gain of 5.71whp.
