DC Sports Short Ram Intake - 2006-2011 Honda Civic Si (FG2/FA5)
Want better induction sound and throttle response without the headache of a cold air intake? The DC Sports short ram intake gives your 8th gen Civic Si a noticeable upgrade while keeping the filter safe up in the engine bay. It's also 50-state C.A.R.B. legal, so you can run it anywhere without worrying about emissions checks.
Filter Stays Out of Harm's Way
Cold air intakes put the filter down in the wheel well, where it can suck up water if you hit a puddle or drive in heavy rain. The DC Sports short ram keeps the filter up in the engine bay where it belongs, so you get the improved airflow without the risk of hydrolocking your K20Z3. It's the smarter setup for a daily-driven Si.
VTEC Sounds Mean When It Crosses Over
The short ram design opens up the intake path and lets you actually hear what the engine is doing. When VTEC crosses over, you get that aggressive induction roar the K-series is known for. It's not obnoxiously loud at cruise, but you'll definitely know when you're in the good part of the powerband.
No Oil, No Mess
DC Sports uses a dry filter that doesn't need oil, so there's no chance of over-oiling and getting oil residue on your intake tract or MAF sensor, which is a common headache with oiled filters. When it gets dirty, pull it out, wash it, let it dry, and put it back in. It's reusable for the life of the car.
50-State CARB Legal
This intake carries a CARB Executive Order number, so it's emissions legal in all 50 states, California included. You can pass smog and run it without worrying about a referee ticket.
