RE: AEM Cold Air
actualy, it really depends on the intake manifold as to what CAI will fit from AEM, if your engine bay looks like this:
you can use the CAI for the DX/LX models, and it should have no issues
if your engine bay looks like this:
you can use the CAI for the EX models, and it'll have no issues
the difference is the location of the throttle bodies in relation to the intake.
In a DX/LX with the D16Y7, the throttle body opens upward
in the EX with a D16Y8, the throttle body opens towards the passenger side.
I am not sure if the HX is similar to the Y7 (I believe it is), or to the Y8 (I think it's similar to the Y7)
your engine (D16Y5) is a bit different from both, since it features the VTEC-E system

^ i was thinkin the same thing, like using a similar intake. I googled it and found a few things: http://enc.drom.ru/3141/< thatsa foreign website, but it has the y5 in the same category as the y8, and i also found a picture of the y5 IM/TB and its side mounted, as opposed to the top mount y7 TB. I'm thinking you probably use a 97 EX CAI and it should work. I dont know though, just looks that way.
