ebay/jrp/optionJDM/
thing to remember what you are buying is a tube with a cone in the end. might aswell just get one of ebay. no point in buying some brand name intake for 300+$.
you can just buy ebay one, and afterwards get a k&n cone from crappy tire and you are set.

if you dont want to ship it, then yeah you can go with one from that site. or just find one for sale which is dirt cheap. if filter is worn bad [then the intake will be cheap] then buy k&n filter from c-tire

You can't always go by pic.
Safest to ask the seller which engine it's for. Different engines will have the intake manifold placed differntly, as well as diff holes and such for senors and vacuum lines.

Also...keep in mind US/CND trim naming differences.
For example, Canadian SIR is the US SI
Whereas the Canadian SI, is the US EX

Buy the intake first, you'll be fine using their trash filter for a while, once u get it you can take the proper measurements of the piping, and fitment, and you can go find a K&N for it.

I see everyone Suggesting the K&N Filter, they're ok i guess. I've used and installed at least 10 AEM Dryflow Filters with far better results in flow and filtration, never mind how easy they are to clean. I put one on my friends 2003 Honda accord with a cold air intake system. The car is 100% stock and he drives it everywhere, dirt roads to the cottage, went to newfoundland with it etc.. and after 3 yrs he asked me to clean the filter for him. I was totally surprised when i took off the filter to find the intake/manifold/throttle plate was spotless. that's the filter i would recommend using.

I'm not sure where you are located but i'm pretty sure that JRP sells them. Also the Part source @ Dundas and Dixie area has 2 of them for $80 each. But i've mostly always shopped around online and found the best deal and had it shipped to me. Oh yeah and Max Motorsports right on the corner of dixie and dundas can get them for $85 i remember asking him a couple weeks ago.
