RE: for a 2005 civic

^ haha how convienant!

now i read in the faq that the aem v2 is more of a sri, is this true, is there only one version of the aem v2, meaning you cant get them in sri and cai vareites?

and hey my04civic, would love to get some soudn clips of the intake and exhaust! do you have the d17a2?

yeah for the 7th gen civics the v2 is an SRI, it stays in the engine bay. and im sure there worth it, but a normal AEM short ram intake is great too. i love mine, and i only spent like 140 on it

thanks a lot for the quick replys!

ditto on the ebay, not getting anything from there, extreme example but would you feed your baby milk bought from ebay? no haha. my car is my baby and it is getting good quality. :-P lets say i couldnt afford the aem v2, would lets say a k&n typhoon provide simialr results?

also for the megan header, http://www.meganracing.com/products/...e.asp?catid=67 does not show anything for my car! the one says for 01-04 civic but excludes the 05

what now?

and for the exhaust, what are some other good brands?

also some other questions remain, is getting the cai filled with water when driving in snow, rain a really big problem? or is that for extreme circumstances only?

You can go with the AEM short ram intake or the Injen short ram intake, Since your worried about hydrolocking your car (which is very unlikey with either the CAI or SRI unless you drive her into a pond) a SRI would provided more confindence then a CAI.

I have a 05 civic....i used the 01-04 EX header, it works fine I PROMISE!

I used Megan, but Apexi, Magnaflow, or maybe Buddy club racin would do you fine....maybe think about custom.

you are 100percent sure right? haha i just want to make sure. did u have to make any modifications to it to make it fit?

RE: for a 2005 civic
