You can't go wrong with any of the Cold Air Intakes.....you probably won't even feel any HP gains at all.

The most popular and best recommended is the AEM CAI

I would probably go with that.

welcome to the whole car fxing up go fast look good thing.....As mentioned the AEM CAI(Cold Air Intake) as it's one of he more popular ones on the market. the Iceman is an ok intake as well as many other of he cold air systems on the market. Just look around and you can find a good deal on one.

Good luck...

just buy a 3'' intake off ebay for like $15. Then get either K&N or dragon filter. cause an intake is nothing without a good filter.

a intake is an intake to me. I have a AEM CAI, but IMO, i think that they are all the same. i would check out www.ebay.com for a CAI.

AEM is a rip-off IMO -- Iceman works just as any CAI. They all do the same thing. Its only an air filter on a pipe. Some cost more than others because the more expensive are CARB approved & have a sticker which some states may require. Th filter element matters more than the intake tubing, the air dont care if its AEM or E-bay. You could always paint & sticker an E-bay intake to look like AEM, just no CARB sticker.

I suggest a 2-piece CAI.

I know some people with Iceman intakes. They seem to like them just fine. I have an AEM myself and I have no complaints. Intake won't really gain you any horsepower (maybe a couple), but you'll definately notice an improvement in throttle response. If you don't get AEM, then I would recommend any cheap pipe system (eBay as some have suggested) and get a K&N filter.

a intake is an intake to me even though you cant feel the gains you will see it on a dyno...the ice man on a 92 civic si dynoed at an extra 4hp and 3ftlbs tq.....the aem dynoed at 7hp and 5ftlbs tq...there is a difference not very noticable...i say get a cheap one for now till you really need a better one.
