if it's a EG6 it would've had a b16A true? and B16A's and B18C's sit the same? (correct me if im wrong please)
so im guessing just but a CAI to fit EG6's

i think he bought kiki's eg6 .
wouldn't the sizing be diffrent for the pipes ?

so i should get the one for civic 92-95 then...?

[dougie_504]

yeah but might need a different rubber connector to attach intake to tb?

I believe you need to get a custom CAI.

[dougie_504]

Just make one yourself with a SRI made to fit the B18 TB

I had a fujita for b18cr cai in my eg. sits nice and tight.
Eg/dc chassis are very similar anyway I reckon get the cai made for b18c

Make sure you get the CAI for B18CR for a DC2R not the B18C2/C1 for the VTiR or GSR and the IM sits differently and requier a different Intake piping layout.

B18CR/B16A/B16B would use similar intakes as they have similar IM/TB positions in the Engine bay.

ok thanks guys great help, i've been checking out the aem cai's and it seems i would have to get a hybrid cai if i went with aem, i really kinda dont like hybrid cai so might just get injen i like the way it sits looks better
