Intake pipe

Evening all

After making our own intake I am not totally happy.

Does anyone have a air intake pipe they do not want? It can be short or long as I just need one that fits.

The B series whales p3nis do not fit due to coming too close the the suspension mount.

If anyone has one please let me know and send me a pic if you can and a price delivered

Cheers hoppi

Are the generic CRX cold intakes on eBay not suitable?

Not sure tbh hence the request for old ones on here to try and save some brass. There are some generic ones for about £50 if it doesn't fit it's 50 wasted that's all

Wouldn't the CRX intake have a better chance of fitting than a Prelude one? I have no idea, I am asking.

i am not sure the b series whale type do not have enough bend angle to fit between the suspension mount and dizzy cap the CAI's may fit between them its just the cost if they do not??? i am currently becoming inspector clouseau looking at google images lol :ugeek:

I wouldn't use a whale penis anyway, sucking in that warm air. IMO you are better with a proper cold air feed.

How far away is the H22's throttle body from the position of the original engine?

from doing the above it looks like a b-series CAI would be the way to go...

The Prelude's intake takes a different path:
