Default Need a Short Ram intake - Which one?

I'm looking for a short ram intake for my 95 Civic, that I'm putting a D16Z6 in. I dont want to break the bank, so I need something budget friendly. From what I've read, a tube is pretty much a tube, but put a good filter. Can someone tell me the best place to find the tube and filter? I know they are all over EBAY, but I dont know what to buy and what not to buy. Thanks

Is it any cheaper buying that way compared to just buying one of these?

Ebay intake:

AEM dryflow

Just make sure if the intake is 2.5" in diameter, you get the 2.5" filter, if you get the 2.75" or 3", get the appropriate sized filter to fit. I would recommend a 2.5", or 2.75".

To answer you question, the only thing that the AEM pipe has on the ebay pipe is that little bracket that is on there that mounts to the passenger side strut tower. The filters are the same. Like I said, just make sure the piping and the filter are the same size and you should be all set.

Don't mean to hijack your thread but I don't really wanna create a whole new thread basically asking the same thing. Anyone know if they sell any eBay versions of the AEM hybrid intake for an H22 in a Civic? All I've been able to find are the AEM products. Thanks
