I am still thinking of Spoon/Mugen replacement filter or pod style like Apexi.

I guess it depends on what your looking for...
IMO... pod gives that nice "roar" sound but can be a pain if the police want to tell you off for having one...
and Panel replacment filter will be much quieter and more discreet and you can make a CAI to work very well
What are you looking for??
1- sound and minimum performance (unless you fit CAI)
or
2- performance and stealth look?
:D
Me...i would go with Pod and the loud roar :D
hm.... that's a good point. So i may just get replacement filter then since my new set of HID is always get too much attention.
how about power wise?
hehe yeah a panel filter would prob be better cause if the police look under your bonnet...it would look stock.
It depends on how the filter and box is set up as i havent actually looked at it but here are some.....
In regards to power.... a panel filter with CAI is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to make power. The CAI hose will force cold air into the box and thru the filter. The air box also will help to dissipate the hot air. This is the cheapest and most effective way atleast.
A more expensive but much better way is to have a custom intake pipe made from the throttlebody with a pod filter attached near the bottom of the bumper(behind the mesh etc..atleast somewhere where it forces air into)
As i havent looked at the engine bay of a jazz upclose i dont know exactly how much room there is for this mod...but any decent workshop should be able to make and fit a system like this :D
The prob with fitting just a pod (that is no CAI or custom intake etc) is that the air it sucks is hot air from the engine bay and hot air intake really isnt a effective way to get power.
IMO i dont think by sticking a spoon filter in will do much as teh airbox is closed up and very restrictive.
If you want better performance get a pod.
Pete :)
How restrictive is the air box?? As i havent looked :o
Is it not like most 4 cyl airbox's??
IMO very!
the stock pipe that goes behind the light (the one that sticks out the side of the stock airbox) isnt near the stock pipe that runs up the air from the vents.
the actual box itself is made up of 3 boxes with a pipe that runs through from the right to the left to the middle (if you turn it upside down you'll understand).
Pete :)
3 boxes hey??
Sounds really wierd...altho i did read in the latest Honda Tuning mag that the 5zigen has a custom 3 chamber intake which made me think " crazy jap tuners " hehe
So getting a custom pipe and pod could be made for the system??
If it was a straight through system it would have to allow ALOT more air in surely?? I only ask as this will be one of my first mods as i have the utilities to make my own from mandrel bent piping etc.
I presume you would need a apexi s-afc or similar to control the extra airflow??
yeah vafc2
Do you own an exhaust shop? anyway seeing as you have the utilities if you get it done can you get me a quote on a stainless steel s pipe?
Pete :)
Nahh i dont own one.
There are shops here that sell mandrel bent pieces and straight pieces in both stainless and mild. My friend who owns a tuning shop (being built) has the equipment for fabrication so being able to make one will be easy :D
A friend of mine had one built for his 2000 type r integra that cost $480 in polished 3" mandrel bent fitted with a k & n filter from one of the shops here.... which imo is quiet expensive. So yeah DIY is the way for me ;)

First up, you can't get a mugen replacement panel for our current model. Mugen have only released a filter for the update which uses a new/different intake....
Spoon and Trust do replacement panels....
I have the A'pexi intake and have noticed improved top-end since fitting it even though I still haven't finished the CAI.
I have also had a chat to guy who has used bothe the A'pexi and the Trust replacement panel in a modded stock box. He has said that by using a modded stock box, he got much better low down response and has since stick with that.
As he also pointed out, Spoon use the factory box (albeit modified) for their race-prepped fit, so take from that what you will I guess.
Lil VTEC, I'm not sure how you will go mounting the filter down low behind the grill, because, once you have a look, you will see what I mean. Even if you can get it down low (which I doubt) it will still be mounted directly behind the radiator, because the radiator takes up the whole front end! So you will be getting the used and hot air that has passed through the radiator.
I'll need to get some pics up of my current setup, though for maximim performance, I would be going with a modded OEM box with a CAI feed.
pic pic.............
CAI feed to stock box is what i want i think coz cop are suck....
I severely doubt a police officer will look under the bonnet of a Jazz.
lol
IF they does, u will get really pissed
but i dun care much actually but just after which performace and the better and easy to setup
JUS_10 - Ah true, thatnks for that. Will have to have a look at yours definately... looking forward to seein the pics :D
just wanted to ask and restart this thread.
with the jazz, do you guys favour using a short ram system or using a fully custom system that gets air from somewhere else?
The CAI designed intakes are better...you might lose a bit of throttle response but you will get that from any aftermarket setup.
The Apexi short ram gives decent gains and a great sound but can suffer a bit from engine heat, etc. That said when mine was tested we were getting about 3kw at the wheels with it which isn't to bad for about $150-200!
TODA intake gained around 4.1kw atw for jc and me when we installed.
We got it done and dyno'd yesterday! Great intake!
My VTIS 1.5L Honda jazz gains around 3KW ATWheels too. Dynoed at (75.4KW)101hp@the wheels and 15.1sec 0-400M
Umm that's a pretty quick 1/4 mile man (stock is highish 16s)....how much did you strip out? What MPH did you run????Quote:

Contact toda to see how much it will cost to ship it
I wonder if J's racing intake is any good? hmmm...
http://www.excite.co.jp/world/englis...=JAEN&wb_dis=2

So my baby is a Idsi 1.3ltr, was wondering what kinda intake is best for the I-dsi engine to gain more response and acceleration in performance.??
Inputs would be appreciated! thanks :D
FYI the Idsi performs its maximum torque at about 2.8k-3.6k RPM... wonder what intake supports this engine...
i recently bought a simota sri/cai dunno wat it is but yeah, i really noticed a difference wen i installed it 2day, its alot louder, u can hear ur vtec more lol and does feel like ur getting a lil bit extra more power
