Default Swapped Engine Intakes

When you do a engine swap, like I'm bout done putting a B16a in my 93 civic ex, what intake do I use on it. Would my old intake off my d16z6 work or what?

AEM makes hybrid intakes. Check those out and you will find something for sure. Good Luck!

I had an AEM short ram on my D series. It didn't fit on my B16. The TB is too big. Just stick a filter on the end of the B16 intake hose. 25$ SRI. Works just as good as the AEM as far as I can tell.

IMO AEM and Ebay Intakes are the same crap! The only diffrence is the paint on the AEM will last forever while the ebay one "MIGHT" crap out and fade.

I did that. I'll get an ebay tube eventually, probably flows a little better.

Spending 200-300$ on an AEM intake for a 4 cylinder Honda makes you look like a dumbass.
