OK I'm just going to come out & say this (SRI ?)

Instead of just posting this in threads that haven't been seen by many in awhile.


I put together a DIY SRI using the Spectra 81403 adaptor. After looking in the K & N section of every auto shop here, none fit the 4 inches of the adaptor. So what can you guys be using? Adding a 4" - 3" converter only makes the tubing longer and leaving hardly any room to put a filter in. The only way to get one that I know of, is to special order one from K & N. So I went with the Spectra filter because it comes 4 inches, but I'd feel a lot better havin K & N, or am I just paranoid?


What am I missing hurrrrrrrrrr?????????

oh and which mounting bracket did you use and how did you mount it? i got that cheap $4.99 one but haven't really had any luck on using it, so i used 1 zip tie until i can get it mounted properly.

might just go get that $11.99 kit with more parts in it.

It's not a Honda noise. That's what most people don't understand. You drive a small-displacement inline motor. Doesn't matter if it's a Honda 1.5L or a 2L or a Chevy 2L. They all sound about the same because it's just a small motor sucking in and pushing out air.

Get used to it. Or just turbo your car, which changes the sound quite a bit.
