3" or 4" cai

I've seen metal reducing sleeves(made for headers) and silicone reducing sleeves used with great success

If you have 4" or more of pipe(like b.r.i.a.n. has) after the reducing sleeve the air will be smooth when it hits the T/B

My car and a couple of other s2k's I have dyno'd had very large gains going from a 3 inch cai to a 4inch.
once you start making more than 220hp to the tires a 3 inch intake is simply not big enough. Its way easier to hurt power with an intake thats too small rather than one thats too big.
Also, the air filter makes a difference. AEM dryflow always makes a couple more hp than anything else on the market.

Any proof of this?

I dont have access to the dyno i used for most of these tests, but i have tested all sorts of intakes on all sorts of setups and generally the bigger and longer the inyake the better the power. Certian k series setups act weird due to the things you can do with vtc... we dont have thay so its a moot point.

That's what my thoughts are. I'm new to Hondas but I'm not new to cars. Most of my cars were turbo cars or v8, but the ideas all the same. Don't choke the motor Let it get as much air as it can take. It's like breathing through a straw will certainly give you enough air, but breathing with an open mouth feels a hell of a lot better.

Now their's mixed reviews about the intake diameter lol
