Default CAI or Front Mount

I was wondering which one I could possibly get more HP out of. A CAI or a Front Mount Air Intake, on a 95 Civic Ex. Thanks

a cold air intake or even a short ram, this is due to the fact that those shitty front mount intercooler styled units will bring in air but the air has to travel father to the intake manifold. with a cold air or short ram(injen or aem) this will most likey make more power due to the fact the air doesnt have to travel as far to the manifold

I actually saw the front mount on a 95 Civic Ex from Arospeed on horsepower TV and it picked up some nice dyno numbers

lol i would definently stick with the CAI or short ram, those "interfoolers" are made for one thing, make it look like you have something you dont. Theives are pretty dumb these days, they wont notice only one "charge pipe" leaveing the "intercooler" before they decide your your "turbocharged" car might be worth stealing
