I'm having trouble finding a cold air intake for my 05 civic ex 1.7L automatic. I can find it for a manual and I can find short ram but I want a true cold air. Anyone have any suggestions?

 

doesnt matter i dont think...not sure on 7th gens

carlover...take a lesson from this guy. he got the SRI and now wants a CAI. just like to point this out that you shouldnt get a SRI because you WILL want a CAI

 

i used to date a girl who had a 04 EX with the 1.7 SOHC VTec and auto and counldnt find her a CAI either, for some reason they only make CAI for manuals

 

I think it's because the model is too new. I only found the Injen Short Ram for my 05. However, they sell an extension to convert to a CAI.

 

Where did you find the extension. When I looked I only found the extension for pre 01 civic intakes.

 

Which is better......CAI or SRI? lol......J/K

 

Not sure if they make the extension pipe for the newer models. I would contact them and find out. I am satisfied with my short ram.

 

yeah i'm not a fan of SRI's either

 

^^^word^^^

is it just the 05 you cant find? because 03 and 04 should fit. 02 and 01 might...but there was a slight change between 02 and 03 and i dont know if that affected the engine bay. But anything from an 03 or an 04 should fit an 05

 

Yeah, mine short ram is an 04 so unless they made a CAI in the last couple of weeks, I'd say no there aren't any CAI for the 04 or 05 model.
