English, much?

A quick search on the intakes will pull up a lot of good info. We've pretty much determined that the G3 is the best available CAI, with the Injen trailing a little bit behind. These are the only two intakes shown to produce material gains.

If power is your only concern -- go for the G3s. If you don't like the idea of an oiled filter or any of that jazz, then the Injen might be a better fit for you.

Well Modshacks intakes and DIY vents showed good gains if not the same gains too.

Well...I suspect they're as good! Haven't dyno'd them but:

1) IAT's are low and in-line with the G3's

2) I have reconfigured MAF tubes to lean the mix a bit (Stillen does this by Maf positioning from what I can tell)

speaking of leaning out. With the FI exhaust on now for a good couple of weeks, my exhaust tips are still nice and shinny. So Im assuming the exhaust leaned me out, is that a good thing?

Probably a bit..

Stock, the ECU needs a 10-12% fuel correction from rich to balance things to stochiometric. This is why bolt-ons have such a big HP effect on this car. By bringing fuel corrections closer to Zero (leaner) the car makes more power yet is perfectly within desired limits for Emissions and correct A/F ratios ..

Please write English correctly, you look like a clown/idiot.

Stillen gets my vote.

The reason I didn't mention Steve is because his are not mass-produced for retail sale.

This isn't the Honda Civic forums

I won't really comment on what would be better since I own Stillen Gen3's but I will say this: Don't bother or waste your money with short ram intakes
