91-93 Integra , 2 piece, one approx 160 degree and other approx 90 degree bend.
This is what I ordered http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 7974041952

awesome... so is there a lot of modification involved to make it fit? and will it fit with a 1.8L engine bay, cuz i noticed you have a KLZE

the other one i realised that i think its the 91 civic might fit with modification to the piping.. i saw it on endocyc'c cardomain page

Here's a good how to courtesy of babybluemx3...

it is very easy to install and shouldnt take you more than 2 hours for sure.

a hacksaw works

Use a light sabre, will be much faster.. but if you cant get your hands on one.. a hacksaw as mentioned or a reciprocating saw (sawzall) will do the job.. or.. if you have access to a band saw.. that would probably work the best. Though I just use my light sabre

thanks, I would use my light saber but I have the double-ended kind, which makes it difficult for any practical uses other than whoopin up on some jedis.

Has anybody tried the short ram version of this intake? I don't want to go through all the trouble in installing the cold air.

I know people that have the short ram intake and it works fine, but the CAI is really not that hard to do. Took me all of 2 hours.

thanks for your input, I was getting worried from this post:

Are you refering to the same 91-93 integra intake but just the short ram version?
