D17 Throttle Body size help

Hey

So im looking at getting a short ram intake for my 01 civic lx and I realized that theres no point in buying a kit from one of the big name companies. They're just so expensive and im payin for a tube, so I want to get one either used or custom fit one. My problem is I need to know what the size of my throttle body where the intake hooks up to, and I need to find any kind of an elbow or u-bend tube that I can hook up to the throttle body because it points up, lol. Any ideas or suggestions is appreciated, thanks!

Hope that this makes sense, lol.

Can you link me to any that are local and I dont have to ship from the US, sometimes shipping alone is $40-45, and just makes it seem not worth it for a no-name kit.

thanks
