DC Sports Cold Air Intake for 96-00 Honda Civic DX/LX/CX 1.6L
Unlock the hidden power of your D-series with the DC Sports cold air intake for 96-00 Honda Civic DX/LX/CX 1.6L. By relocating the filter to the lower fender well and replacing the restrictive factory tube, this system feeds your D16 with a steady stream of cooler, denser oxygen—exactly what it needs to make more horsepower and a throaty induction growl.
Why you’ll feel the difference
- Dyno-proven gains – Free-flowing mandrel-bent 6061-T6 aluminum tubing straightens airflow and adds double-digit horsepower and torque throughout the rev range.
- Crisper throttle response – The smooth inner bore eliminates turbulence so the engine responds the instant you touch the pedal.
- Colder, cleaner air – A true fender-mount design pulls intake charge away from the heat-soaked engine bay, lowering intake temps for maximized combustion efficiency.
- Washable, lifetime oiled filter – DC Sports high-flow cone traps dirt down to 5 microns and can be serviced again and again—no more paper elements.
- 50-state legal (CARB EO D-370-15) – Daily-driver friendly; pass smog inspections in California and everywhere else.
- Built to last – Hard-anodized gunmetal finish resists corrosion, and premium silicone couplers shrug off engine movement and high under-hood temps.
- Everything in the box – Stainless T-bolt clamps, bracketry, and step-by-step photo instructions mean you can bolt it on in your driveway.

1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, and 2000 Honda Civic DX, LX, and CX models with the 1.6L D16Y7 engine (hatch, coupe, or sedan).
