Cold Air Intake for 1992-1995 Honda Civic 1993-1997 Del Sol 1.5L 1.6L

1992-1995 Honda Civic & 1993-1997 Del Sol 1.5L/1.6L Cold Air Intake

The factory intake on a 1992-1995 Honda Civic or 1993-1997 Civic Del Sol works against the D15 or D16 engine: a ribbed plastic tube with internal turbulence ridges, a restrictive paper panel filter, and a snorkel that pulls warm air from behind the headlight. On a D15B7 or D16Z6 already working with modest displacement, every restriction matters. This Flashark cold air intake replaces the entire factory assembly with a mandrel-bent, black powder-coated aluminum pipe that holds a full 2.75-inch internal bore through every bend — no crush points, no ribbing, no turbulence — plus a high-flow red dry-cone filter and a powder-coated steel heat shield that mounts on factory bolt locations.

Two configurations cover the two ways these cars get driven. The Long Ram intake is built for owners rebuilding toward an I/H/E setup, tuning the car, or wanting maximum power and consistency regardless of weather and traffic. The Short Ram intake keeps the filter in the engine bay on a shorter pipe for a 30-minute bolt-on install, louder in-cabin intake sound, and zero water-ingestion concern — the better choice for a daily driver where simplicity and sound are the priority. Bottom line: Long Ram for maximum power under all conditions; Short Ram for a simpler install and louder sound without touching the bumper.

Specifications

Key Features

• Mandrel-bent 2.75-inch T-6061 aluminum pipe: holds the full internal bore through every bend — no crush points, no ribbing, no turbulence — with a durable black powder-coat that resists heat, corrosion, and oxidation far better than polished aluminum.
• High-flow red dry cone filter: washable and reusable with no oil required. This is a dry synthetic media, not cotton gauze — a high-flow pleated element with reinforced mesh backing that captures approximately 95% of particulates without the maintenance overhead of oiled filters.
• Powder-coated steel heat shield: isolates the filter from engine-bay radiant heat — especially important on the Short Ram, where the filter stays in the bay. The rubber edge trim seals against the hood when closed, and the shield mounts on factory bolt locations with no drilling.
• Direct bolt-on design: engineered for the EG Civic and Del Sol D-series engine bay, with the MAF sensor bung pre-welded at the correct position. No cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications — it reuses factory mounting points.
• Complete factory-assembly replacement: replaces the stock airbox, ribbed intake tube, and paper panel filter as one system instead of swapping a single component.
• Variant-matched layouts: the Long Ram is built for maximum power and consistency regardless of weather and traffic; the Short Ram keeps the filter in the engine bay for a 30-minute install and louder intake sound.

Who This Kit Is For

This Flashark cold air intake is a direct fit for the 1992-1995 Honda Civic and the 1993-1997 Civic Del Sol with 1.5L or 1.6L D-series engines, in Long Ram or Short Ram configuration.

✓ For you if… you own a 1992-1995 Civic or 1993-1997 Del Sol with the 1.5L or 1.6L D-series engine and want a bolt-on kit that keeps the factory sensor setup · you're rebuilding toward an I/H/E setup or tuning the car and want consistent power in heat and traffic · you prefer a washable dry filter over disposable paper elements · you have basic hand tools and want the install finished in about 30–60 minutes.

✗ Not for you if… you need an OEM-style replacement air filter or intake hose rather than a complete kit — replacement filters are sold separately · you expect a guaranteed MPG gain from an intake alone · you're in California or another CARB-adopting state and need an EO-certified intake, since this kit carries no EO number · you regularly drive through deep water with the Long Ram's low-mounted filter · you're shopping for the 1996-2000 EK Civic generation.

Check Before Ordering

• Vehicle fitment: exact-fit for the 1992-1995 Honda Civic (EG/EH) and 1993-1997 Civic Del Sol with 1.5L or 1.6L D-series engines — including Civic EX and LX and Del Sol S, Si, and VTEC trims, as long as they run the D15 or D16 engine. If your car is not in the table above, message us with your year, model, engine code, and trim before ordering.
• Intake configuration: choose the Long Ram layout for maximum power and consistency in heat and traffic, or the Short Ram for a 30-minute install, a filter that stays in the engine bay, and louder intake sound.
• Filter and maintenance: the filter is a washable dry-media cone — clean it approximately every 15,000 miles instead of replacing it, and service it more often in dusty conditions.
• Sensors and electronics: the MAF sensor bung is pre-welded at the correct position, and the kit works with the stock D-series sensor setup and factory ECU calibration — no additional sensors or tuning hardware required.
• Legality: this kit does not carry a CARB Executive Order number, so it is not legal for sale or use in California or other CARB-adopting states. Check your state and local emissions rules before ordering.
• Install and water exposure: bolt-on installation in about 60 minutes (Long Ram) or 30 minutes (Short Ram) with basic hand tools and no cutting or permanent modification. The Long Ram positions the filter low in the fender area — avoid deep water crossings; water ingestion can cause hydrolock and severe engine damage.
