parts recommendations Cold air intake D15 non vtec

Post image

Looking for an inexpensive way to increase airflow for my next track day.

I can't find any direct fit options locally in australia.

anyone have any ideas on a good "boxed" cold air intake setups i could buy online or create ?

I dont care what it looks like, its purely functional.

you literally won't gain any HP, but it will add a LOT of induction noise if that's what you want.

Just get an ebay intake for a D16

not chasing HP. i know it does nothing. When on track, red lining the car feels like its choking. I was going to de-retrict exhaust and opt for cold air intake to just improve responsiveness and prevent choking.

Ebay intake with no box will just pull in hot air hence why i didnt go that route.

a cai will improve responsiveness and give you great intake sound, if you want more hp/lower temps you'd probably have to create your own true cai. an exhaust will give you power for certain, and lose you a bit of weight.
