Induction Induction Kit

Nick · 14th May 2006, 17:23

anyone know if there are any aftermarket induction kits for the new civic? if not, what are the measurements for a universal air filter on a 1.8 petrol?

i know that K&N have got a replacement filter for this engine only.

How much will an induction kit improve the car?

Nick · 15th May 2006, 14:32

probably not much at all, or very tiny improvement to bhp and torque, its just the induction roar thats good, and thats why i want it.

Worth the insurance hit for a mod?

You brits with your crazy insurances.

Maybe even James May would've approved of the engine noise with one of those installed.

It's not like the Civic would need one to attract more attention to it.

IMHO just having a induction kit will make slight difference top end BUT I dont think it is worth the extra $$$ to buy one.

If you have tuned your engine in numerous places then the induction kit will make a difference because at some stage the air flow side of things will become a restriction. To be honest, people stick with a induction kit because of the noise it makes. I personally wouldnt bother.

sounds cool ,pitty the cdti sounds so poor or quite as some would say

K&N Inductions are good for 1 - 3bhp, so you really won't notice the difference. They do help make the engine 'rasp' on acceleration a bit more though. K&N filter replacements will not add bhp, just removes the need for garages to replace it every other service.

hey any idea its that i custom air filter or is it a after market one??

Nick · 20th November 2006, 22:06

not sure, emailed injen they aint got back to me. i wouldn't think its a custom 1. its hard to get custom cold air intakes as the piping location to place the filter in the coolest part of the engine is hard to customise.

Nick · 20th November 2006, 22:08

just found another video of the same CAI.

K&N is trying to develope a CAI on my car next week

dinoc · 2nd January 2008, 20:45

Any news on the K&N CAI ?

warriorpete · 12th March 2008, 22:01

Available for Type S in next few weeks [got an email this monday off them].
Part number 57-0668. No price as yet

dinoc · 13th March 2008, 11:17

Good ... but why Type-S , isn't the same engine bay like 5D ?
Can't find that part number ... any idea about gain ?

Looking forward to hear more on this.

warriorpete · 13th March 2008, 19:28

Part number not available till part released, just keep checking. I was following up on another thread where someone has one on his Type R so enquired about my car Type S, assume it will fit all 1.8L's.Usually gain supposed to be about 5-7bhp but i'm only bothered about the sound - i love it!!
