Your car is an automatic, the HP gains seen on "bolt-on" parts are seen in the upper RPM range. The only REAL difference you will see is the weight gone from your wallet. On average all you would see is about 1-2 HP on everyday driving, but is it really worth the money?

like they said u proly wont feel that much of a difference in power. the sound will be nice.. and i just wanted to add that u really should even spend the money on a k&n or name brand for that car. jus get a cheap intake system from ebay both are going to perform exactly alike.. look at this one on ebay, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/88-89-90-91-Honda-Civic-CRX-Cold-Air-Filter-Intake-Kit_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ38634QQihZ008QQitemZ180155702551QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW really cheap and will do what u want. it fits any model civic or crx from 88-91 ........trust me im saving you a lot of money

an air intake is a cool sound, and that is about it, bying one will only give you about 2-3 extra horses, and to me its not worth a 100 dollars. but AEM or Injen make good air intake kits for honda and acuras.you will notice a really troaty sound and it is really cool to listen to, i have a stillen intake on my 300zx, but unlike you i have two turbo's to feed air to.

Yes, it will sound different. No, it will NOT make a decent difference. It won't even make an indecent difference in hp.
