Isnt the base RSX TB like a couple of millimeters smaller than the Si/Type-S? That could be the issue.

It might be that the TB is a couple of mm smaller, but it seems like the difference is greater than a couple mm at the TB. Here's a pic, A is the breather hose, B is where it's supposed to attach, the difference is almost a width of the hose. This difference is also noticable in where the intake is supposed to bolt down.Quote:

Ph0nk,
Did you ever get the RSX SRI in your EP? I'm thinking about
buying a cheap SRI from an RSX owner, just curious as to if you
ever got yours in or not (this one is for an RSX-S, I believe).
I have INJEN SRI that made for type s.
fits perfectly.
Bring this old post back up.
Same question, will it fit? To be more exact, will a AEM RSX Base Manual Short Ram Intake fit? I've searched and people said the Injen Type-S fits with no problem. Didn't see any AEM product saying it fits. If I remember right, I think 1 or 2 said the Type-S AEM Short Ram also fits. The EP, Type-S, and RSX Base all have different part numbers for AEM SRI. Reason why I am getting a RSX Base one is because of price. Found one for under $70 shipped, brand new. Sure beats the 70-100 buck used one made for our car.
This is correct. My Typhoon was for the RSX-s; the one for the base does not fit our cars.Quote:

Did u ever tried using the Base one to install on our car before?Quote:

I tried to get a used one off a base rsx from a local shop but they swore it would not fit.
the thing is, is the K&N be different from the AEM. if the K&N wont, maybe the AEM will? i dunno.
I don't think the sri for a base rsx will fit. I have a injen sri for a rsx type s in my car, and it fits like a glove along with the heat shield.
