On some of the Civics you don't have a choice since the throttle body points straight up.

Why didnt you put it on yourself. Thats the easiest mod in the world. Its the first mod if you do yourself makes you want every mod after that. How much he charge to put it in

[mattyoung33]

yeah why didnt you do it yourself... it took my under an hour to do it with my friend and it was our first time ever putting an intake on.

[civic2001albright]

i haven't had alot of time...only charged me 40 bucks which is nothing.... i got it back today and they only used one of the pipes...so i only have 1 pipe coming out my throtle body not 2 .... so is that goingto be the same as a short ram intake?......or will it still work the same.....as a cai..they said they had now where to hook the other pipe ..

40 bucks to throw on an intake? gah, hell i would have done it for free...

[chris26969]

lol what. They put half the intake on!? What did they do with the piece that points down, throw it in the trash. Take that piece and attach it yourself !

First of all I would go get my money back, or at least half. They only did half of the job. Second I would never take my car back their again, seeing as how they're not even competent enough to install a CAI.

for some reason, this cracked me up!

But seriously, here's another case of rich boy who doesn't know anything about his car who has the money to pay anybody to install the easy mod to his car because he wants to fit in. Seriously, you got what you deserve what you got.

If you were scared to do it, you shoulve gotten a friend to do it, and after that invite him for a cheeseburger.

Yeah I one of those people who was at first didn't want to work on my car myself. But I still put on my cai w/ a friend- it was really easy and you get a little familiar w/ the car while your working on it. $40 LOL...$40...huh...And if white racer is right and you are rich I would got a faster car...IMO. $40 Get a refund
