Cold Air Intake for 90 Accord EX

[90accord]

hey there, i am definatley thinking about putting a cold air intake on my car and then i saw the price of them... i wanted to put an AEM full cold air on. is there any other companies that make just as good as stuff but for cheaper.

Check on eBay, there's ton of them.

I'd see if Weapon R makes a Dragon intake for that model, everyone I've talked to who has one loves it, and they make a lil ram air set for it.

If you dont' mind paying close to $300, get the AEM V2, I have yet to hear a bad thing about that intake, on any site, even from the anti-AEM crowd. Plus the dryflow filter rocks....I got one for my intake, no oil, ever again!

[90accord]

yes they do make a dragon intake for my car.... and i saw those dryflow filters from AEM... how much would that run me. and also they dont make a V2 intake for my car at least not yet..

[darkriver4362]

I paid $42 for the filter....you could probably find a better deal online, it's worth it to me, simply because of no more buying those stuipid azz oil/recharge kits you have with the reusable filters.:)

you get what you pay for ;)

I don't think a 90 Accord will gain much from a CAI from AEM or anyone else....I think you could probably stick a piece of PVC pipe and some foam on the end and it might work just as well :lmao:

Yes you do get what you pay for......never EVER use one of those "high flow" ebay filters...I've seen the inside of the CAI tubes after using one of those, it's not clean, at all.

I had the whole Intake/Headers/Exhaust setup on my 1990 Accord, it performed very well for me, the F series does have a lot of untapped power in it, I have seen it firsthand.

yup many people are surprised by the old F22. later.

key word here: "HAD"

I can't see spending $200-300 on an intake when you can get one for $30- $50 bucks shipped. The filter is the important part and are easy to change out. You are just paying for the brand name, the piping is basically all the same. Just make sure you have a good filter if you get a cheap ebay intake.

from my own experiance, i can tell u it is worth, the aem cold air intake is worth the money, however i have never used any other intake to have any comparision. as far as ebay, i wouldnt go that route.
