Performance Intake
OK, so i tried to drive the car today, and it's stumbling and strugling really bad... come to find out, the air intake pipe is broken.
went online and K&N sells the same intake kit for '91-'94. but i thought the pipe was different since we have that MAF instead of the flapper... am i off? will the same fit?

Re: Performance Intake
yeah, got it. but at $100 it's still a lil expensive. let me look on the local forums see if anyone's got an integra intake i can snag. thanks very much for the picsSuperK wrote:Did you get my message? Did they answer your questions?

Re: Performance Intake
I believe it's the prelude intake... here's a link
http://cgi.ebay.ca/88-91-HONDA-PRELUDE- ... 286.c0.m14" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
all hoses should hook right up. cheap as hell too.
Edit:
you might need a couple extra rubber couplers to join your maf b4 the filter

Re: Performance Intake
yeah, SuperK sent me the link to the original sell, and for the company that sells it now. they're like $89 plus shipping.... i'm not paying $100 to "go slower" lol.
thanks guys. i've found a local guy with an intake he wants to sell... i'll see how much work there is needed to do it and post accordingly.
