Intake SOHC VTEC

[JSpec89]

i currently run a SRI, whale penis. and the crossover is a little noticable.

im running a full aftermarket exhaust but with stock muffler.

will running a CAI make the crossover more louder. will it change the way the car sounds???

also, do you guys have any suggestions on a cheap but decent CAI setup.

INJEN is 400. any other ones cheaper?ebay kits good? no good??

thanks.

Place a massive megaphone near the intake.

straight up dude. get the **** out of the noob forum. if you got no advice or decent input then stfu. theres no need to be a ****ing gronk about it.

Why do you need to be so angry?

You wanted your crossover to be louder and I suggest a megaphone near intake.

Whats wrong with that?

[Importsneezer]

lols.

what this megaphone intake you talking about dude??
you talking about a actual megaphone, just putting it near the intake?

[.k.]

straight up dude! dont get so worked up LOL you could waste your money on a full cai.. it may make the littlest of difference in crossover! but at the end of the day its still only a sohc! sohc's dont make epic crossovers like b series dohc's!

I just got a SRI for $70 and bought some silicone/aluminium pipe from Super Cheap for $105 to extend it into my bumper. With some clamps it came to $185 total.

Sounds nice...if it goes harder I don't really notice it like you do with most small mods on any car, but it can't hurt.


Don't buy Injen or anything pre-fab for your SOHC.

how about, take off your hood
custom piping to your drivers window a pod at the end. that way you can hear the crossover louder and clearer, cos its right next to your ear

SRI's are usually louder than CAI's.

It's just not worth spending all that money for it. Definitely not an INJEN. Sure you might hear it a bit more but still definitely not distinctly. If you want to hear crossover do a B16 or B18 swap.

Lol at OP getting all worked up. You have a SOHC, dont go thinking your vtec it gonna be fully mad crossover everywhere you go. What you have now is efficient enough already and also a very common intake. So just leave it as is.

Want louder crossover, get a B series. But im sure not everyone gets vtec only because of the fully sick crossover noise "shifty eyes" well maybe some of the fanboys.

I have a D16Y1 Civic and a B16A CRX.

D16Y1 crossover is hardly less prominent than the B16A crossover, but the B16A has a higher rev tone to it like it's screaming, whereas the D16Y1 is lower like it's growling or something lol.

Enjoy what you have!
