On eBay there are even intakes for the DX/LX motor, and they're only like 26 bucks before shipping. You can also take out the resonator box, snorkel, and rubber joint like I did on mine. I'll have a digital camera hopefully tomorrow so if you have questions as to what and how I can upload some pics of my modified stock intake.

What I would do is relocate your battery and then just grab a POS APC intake that looks like it'll fit... After I relocated my battery, I just picked up an APC intake for an Accord.

sorry guys, right after i posted that i went out and looked, and i felt like such a goof that i couldnt come back and tell you guys. I was hoping you had forgotten, but I honestly wasnt trying to lie to anyone. I'm sorry guys, really, I'll be more careful and check first before I post things next time.

Pffft, the only reason you like the SOHC is because it was already in your car - and you keep jockin frostnuts' nuts...
But ive still yet to see his dyno...

LOL - it's all good yo! :iceslolan - we will forgive you....peeps around here don't forget much. ;)
I have an AEM CAI for an 88-91 Si I bought from 13secondcivic a couple of years ago. It rubs the strut bar (not pictured) just a little, but I think when the ZC is in, the throttle body will be a little lower and not rub anymore.

yes.. :bigthumb:
I have an Si/EX (d16a6) intake on my DX (d15b2) motor...it fits OK, but not perfectly...like I said, I think the throttle body sits a little higher on the DX, so my intake rubs my strut bar a little bit, but it still functions just fine. If I didn't have the full CAI, and only the short ram I don't think it would be an issue at all...
