PRODUCT DETAILS
DC Sports Short Ram Intake – 2006–2011 Honda Civic DX / EX / LX (SKU: SRI5525)
This DC Sports Civic short ram is built for the 2006–2011 Honda Civic DX, EX, and LX 1.8L crowd that wants real gains, not noise for the sake of noise. It replaces the restrictive factory setup on your intake with a straighter, freer-flowing path that sharpens throttle response Civic intake feel and gives you a deeper induction sound while staying fully street legal.
We swap the fragile OEM rubber tract for smooth, mandrel-bent aluminum piping and pair it with a high flow air filter Civic setup using our washable air filter Civic element. This lightweight Civic intake system cuts turbulence, helps the engine pull in air more efficiently, and ditches the factory snorkel choke point. On a stock Civic performance build with bolt-ons, you’ll feel quicker tip-in and stronger midrange, whether you’re commuting or leaning on it in third.
This Honda Civic intake kit 1.8L is fully 50-state C.A.R.B. compliant, so you can run it on any emissions-checked Civic LX short ram intake build without drama. The kit bolts on with normal hand tools, no cutting or permanent modification. Every DC Sports air intake Civic kit comes with hardware and brackets to mount cleanly on both manual and automatic cars, so you spend more time driving and less time fighting fitment. We run these same parts on our own 8th gen test cars, so if something’s annoying, we find out fast.
