This Mishimoto short ram intake opens that up: up to 8 whp and 6 wtq, a genuinely aggressive tone (especially when VTEC hits), and a quick bolt-on install. The wrinkle black pipe is offered with or without a heat shield, so you can set it up the way you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWith Or Without The Heat Shield\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the choice to make, and it matters on a short ram specifically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA short ram intake puts the filter in the engine bay, which is great for flow and sound but means the filter can pull in warm underhood air, the short ram's one real weakness. The \u003cstrong\u003eheat shield addresses exactly that\u003c\/strong\u003e: a black powder-coated shield sits between the filter and the hot exhaust manifold, blocking that heat so the filter draws cooler air and the intake doesn't heat-soak as much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWith the heat shield\u003c\/strong\u003e is the better-performing setup, it keeps intake temps down, which matters most on a hot day or when you're driving hard, so it's the one to get if you want the intake working at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWithout the heat shield\u003c\/strong\u003e is the simpler, lower-cost option, or the pick if you've already got heat management handled another way. It still flows and sounds great; you're just giving up some of the heat protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor most people, the shield is worth it, it's how you get the most out of a short ram. Pick based on whether you want maximum performance or the simpler setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Gains, And A Note On Tuning\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeing straight about the power, since there's nuance here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is dyno-proven for up to \u003cstrong\u003e8 whp and 6 wtq\u003c\/strong\u003e, real gains for an intake on the K20Z3, and it runs safely on the stock tune to deliver them. No tune is required to install it and get those numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat said, Mishimoto recommends a \u003cstrong\u003eretune to get the most out of it\u003c\/strong\u003e, a tune calibrated to the freer-flowing intake can extract more than the stock calibration allows, so your actual gains scale with the tune you run. Bottom line: it's safe and makes power on the stock tune, and it makes more with a tune. If you're building the car, this is a natural part to have in place before or alongside a tune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAccurate MAF, Smooth Power\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe MAF housing is what keeps it running right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe intake uses a \u003cstrong\u003eCNC-machined MAF housing\u003c\/strong\u003e that gives accurate, consistent mass-airflow readings, which is what lets the ECU meter fuel correctly and deliver a smooth power band rather than the surging or inconsistent response a poorly-designed intake can cause. It's the detail that separates a quality intake from a cheap one that reads wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eMore Filter, Better Flow\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe filter is a real upgrade over stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mishimoto oiled filter has \u003cstrong\u003e85% greater surface area\u003c\/strong\u003e than stock, which means more airflow and more filter to trap dirt before it reaches the engine. It's washable and reusable, so it serves for the life of the car with periodic cleaning rather than being a replace-it item. Standard oiled-filter upkeep: clean and re-oil every 10,000 to 15,000 miles, more often in dusty conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCARB-Legal, Quick Install\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt's \u003cstrong\u003eCARB compliant (EO# D-759-1)\u003c\/strong\u003e, so it's 50-state legal and passes a visual emissions inspection, which matters in California and other checked states. And it installs in \u003cstrong\u003eunder an hour\u003c\/strong\u003e with no need to remove the front bumper or splash guard, a straightforward bolt-on with the included silicone coupler, clamps, and hardware. Designed in Delaware, with a USA-made filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2006-2011 Honda Civic Si (FG2 coupe, FA5 sedan, K20Z3)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWrinkle black pipe, available with or without heat shield.

Up to 8 whp and 6 wtq on the stock tune (more with a retune), a huge improvement in tone especially on VTEC, and your choice of running the heat shield or not. Get the shield if you want it working at its best, and give the K20Z3 the intake it deserves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2006-2011 Honda Civic Si (FG2\/FA5, K20Z3). \u003cstrong\u003eGains:\u003c\/strong\u003e up to 8 whp \/ 6 wtq on stock tune (more with a retune). \u003cstrong\u003eOptions:\u003c\/strong\u003e with or without heat shield. \u003cstrong\u003ePipe:\u003c\/strong\u003e mandrel-bent aluminum, wrinkle black. \u003cstrong\u003eMAF housing:\u003c\/strong\u003e CNC-machined for accurate readings. \u003cstrong\u003eFilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mishimoto oiled, 85% more surface area, washable. \u003cstrong\u003eEmissions:\u003c\/strong\u003e CARB legal, EO# D-759-1. \u003cstrong\u003eInstall:\u003c\/strong\u003e under an hour, no bumper removal. \u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mishimoto lifetime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e2006-2011 Honda Civic Si\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Mishimoto","offers":[{"title":"No","offer_id":67665374019618,"sku":"MIS-MMAI-CIV-06SIWBK","price":216.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yes","offer_id":67665374052386,"sku":"MIS-MMAI-CIV-06SIHS","price":334.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/a78ca993-7251-42bb-b4b9-f0c469bc7f7e-800.jpg?v=1790977326","url":"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/mishimoto-performance-short-ram-intake-06-11-civic-si","provider":"Hybrid Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
