CAI for DC5R...

[kanasu]

Hey Guys,

I've been looking around and discovered that there is pretty much no info on cold air induction setups for the DC5.

I was wondering:

1. what is the best setup... Value for money.
2. Which would give a good induction noise/ Power gain
3. Is it okay to leave the stock box and change the piping into it? would that create a loud induction noise and give power gains?

Any info in this area would be great.

Thankz.

as far as i know, there isn't a CAI for the DC5 yet...

but brands such as AEM and Injen make SRI's, and with a good box they can be as good as cai.

may i suggest a ARC airbox?
worth $800
up to 15kw gain w/ tuning.
as for noise, it sounds pretty much stock <4000rpm but big diff in sound when >5000rpm or in vtec.
neat eh?

Injen, AEM, DC Sports all make CAI for the DC5. Check there websites for info.

i think injen provide the best gains of all the 'pod on a pipe' designs, if your loaded get the mugen intake or better still, the gruppe m carbon fibre intake

Have a search on clubrsx, it has a huge amount of info regarding dc5's.

Ok, at Present i'm running a K&N Typhoon Intake, $380 from Mercury Motorsport (Brisbane), they usually retail for around $500 though. Its loud, It works. Before that i was using a Replacement Filter for the Factory Airbox. Hondata have instructions how to modify the box to get more flow. I have not tried this as yet. Both do make a diference, and the Typhoon works better than the replacement element. But It is Bloody Loud!!

You will find in summer when trying to take off from a stationary position (ie drag racing etc) that the K & N will cause heat soak. I had a major problem with mine causing pinging in summer.

I would highly recommend the mugen airbox, got mine new for 900 bucks and am loving it

can someone tell me the instructions on how to upgrade my stock air box to a hondata one..?
