First of all what type of Honda do you drive? Vtec? Why do you need the a new Air intake system anyway? There are pros and cons of both Short ram and the Cold air intake. Depends ,I read somewhere that If you want power at low RPM's one should say go for the long ram/Cold air Intake, If you want more power at high RPM's to go with the short ram. I would say go for a short ram with a medium lenght tube for best results. Just my experience. With the long ram you you are exposing your breathing to rain and water. but ofcorse colder air is much more efficient in terms of combustion. I too considered the options before and got a K&N Short ram, it's a bit louder but cant have it all.

AEM ,K&N,Pipercross, DCsports are all good.You will not find any trouble finding the right one for you in the US.

This is just my opinion, Mean green might know better, if he's familiar with Variable valve timing as opposed to his high power dragsters

Use your original Air tube and attach an AEM dry cone intake filter to it.

The original tube is made of plastic unlike after market pipes, so it won't heat itself as much. So in turn the original pipe will keep the intake air cooler. Plus only having to buy a filter will be much cheaper.

this is the only pic i can find:

I took advice from a pro who features in this thread called Porkster and it worked miracles to my Honda Civic.

Overall would ya consider that oil based cone filters being more reliable and efficient than those of oil-less cone filters?
