Cai

Did a search on Ebay for Civic CAI's...500 or so came up, will any of these do or should I look for certain things. What year civic CAI will fit...a particular brand, or are they all pretty much the same. I dont really want to spend 200 dollars with Christmas right around the corner. And yes I know to get a bypass valve Since I need to relocate the battery where can I find wires to run to the trunk? Is it easier to run the wires under the car, or through the firewall?

moved from the prelude forum to the civic forum

Next you should do a search here.
Don't bother with a bypass valve unless you plan on driving your car in 2' of water. Instead of the valve, get a K&N filter. Any intake will do as long as its meant for your car, that should be pretty simple to figure out. If you live in a state strict on emmisions, you will want the more expensive intakes due to CARB approval/sticker.
For relocating the battery, try www.summitracing.com (http://www.summitracing.com) or www.google.com (http://www.google.com) & search for battery relocation kits. You will need more than just cables.

Thank you very much!!

WHat year Civic CAI will fit?

Its your car, why are you asking us? Don't you know what year your car is?

Lol. Maybe he doesent know if his car is an NSX prelude or civic, maybe its a 1985 NSX? Lol....
Just kidding.
Yeah as long as your filter is a good one such as a K&N the pipe shouldnt matter.

Actually I was told by some Prelude owners only certain year Civic CAI's would fit my car. BTW it is a 1989 Prelude SI...with a 85 NSX engine in it :evillol:
