Does anyone know have this intake?

Or Heard anything about it because I'm considering buying one from Pac Mall.

It's half the price of AEM.

thanks

save some money and pick up an AEM CAI it's the best bang for the buck, it's expensive but it makes more power than any intakes outthere

how much of a difference is an intake alone gonna make, not much. Barely noticeable, Get a generic one or the bomz one doesnt reaaly matter, intake is an intake

I don't think that there is a big difference between CAI's.

Problem is, I think that the bomz CAI is 3" piping.

According to Bbarbulo, for a car that has only header and exhaust upgrades, 2.5" is more recommended. maybe because I might low end torque with a too big 3" intake. I don't know.

I just wanted to know if anyone had a BOMZ intake.

Civics arent made to use 3" piping your better off with something 2.5" b ut you wont however notice it that much , I mean the .5" isnt gonna make that much of a difference. Is you r engine stock?

yes 2.5 is best for civic, 3" diam is too big and doens't create the same velocity.

tha BOMZ Cold Air Intake for my car is really cheap. I think they said 140 new. But i have to wait for a couple of weeks(waited one so far). PM me and I'll try to find out the correct name of the store.

just afraid of losing out on lowend if it were a 3" intake.
I want 2.5 piping. We'll see when I get it.

my car has chikara 421 headers and still decidin on an exhaust. Probably just the muffler to a straight through like BOMZ or APeXNi style.

thanks for the replies
