Default which c.a.i. to get...

i'm swapping in my B20z into my 90 crx si. i have a 90-01 integra ls skunk2 intake manifold w/ either the B20z throttle body or a 90 integra ls throttle body(i have both). now my questions are:
-which is a better throttle body to use B18a or B20z?
-i want the AEM c.a.i. now which year and model do i buy for?
thanks

CAI dont fit with a turbo on your car

if your battery is still in the stock position, im not sure i think the CRX CAI will work
but if your battery has migrated to the truck you can use a 99-00 Si CAI... ebay 35bucks dont waste your money on that over priced ----...

I have no idea if this one would work on your car, but it's an imitation of the new AEM V2 cold air intakes. haha it's the IEN PC-2 cold air intake.

i don't have all the parts for my turbo setup. so in the mean time i will have my dc sport 4-2-1 header on.

are you guys sure that the knock-offs of the AEM will perform as good
what about the throttle body question?anyone?
thanks

Think about what a cold air intake is. It is a pipe with a filter on the end of it that is placed in a spot so it gets fresh cooler air other than hot engine bay air. How is one brand going to outperform the other? Maybe if one company puts the filter in front of the exhaust manifold and the other puts it hanging on the outside of the fender. :P

As for the throttle body I would say bigger is better. The bigger motor probably has the bigger throttle body. Most D/B series throttle bodies are interchangable. I forget what years do not interchange though.
