Simota Air Intake Systems for Honda Civic ES

[Civic_minded]

Can u give me more info on this injen filter?? TKs bro

I dun think it is feasible to remove your heatshield, as you will only be exposed to more hot air after that. The Simota heatshield helps draws cool air from the front of the bonnet... not sure how successfule is that as more cold air feeds normally are donw from the front lower bumper....

Can it be the heatshield is too small to hold sufficient air to be sucked in by the filter...suffocation? Since the heatshield is black...it tends to absorb heat from the engine bay..thus the air inside the shield is still hot when the car is stationary. However, when the car is moving...then colder air from outside will be pushed in.

 

This might explain why low end torqueis loss.

[Thepukster]

That could very well be one of the reason... but still I'm in no position to comment cos I dun own a Simota intake previously, I'm running on TopFuel intake with Twister filter....

 

Bro Accordvtec will be in a better position to advise you...

Hi there,

 

The induction from the Simota is very loud.

 

Recently changed to the Green Cotton Dynatwist [also known as the "Twister"]. Induction growl is deeper.

 

Pick up is better now as well.

 

Will try to post pics when I manage to transfer from my digicam.

where did u get it from and how much did it cost? is the fitting universal?

[Normal_aspirated]

cool

can hv a look during one of the meetup?

[Assassin]

Sure. But not this week tho as am sending the car in for servicing and got company dinner this Friday evening.

[Assassin]

Youve got PM.

 

Basically, there are 3 types of "covers", the aluminium [silver] one, a clear/transparent one where you can see the green cone inside, and the carbon fibre one, which is the most expensive.

 

But the induction sound is
