If they are designed for the application, then yes. Air is air, and generally, you want the least hot air possible. You would have to re-tune everything to match the new intake of course.
A "cold air" intake isn't that different mechanically from a short ram intake. It just has a different end point.
all engines hesitate when cold they need to get to proper running temp
I have a 2003 Saab 9-3 2.0t Linear. and i was wondering if i put the K&N 57I intake in my car, will it increase MPG on my car? some people say cold air intakes decrease turbo lag but wouldn't that cause less MPG?
AEM currently makes all Mopar intakes and relabels them as Mopar.
Cold air intakes are usually placed in the fender well area, which brings in a cooler charged air from beneath the car (outside of the engine bay), which is denser and therefore creates more power.
no, because the factory air box is so restrictive (trying to quiet the intake down) simply by removing the air box you improve hp and mileage maybe not noticeably because you are now sucking hot air from the engine bay but if you do a cold air intake you will def see noticable gains.

From 5 to 10 horsepower.
Honda engines are already built pretty well. The air intakes do flow pretty good nowadays. I have seen AEM intakes on a stock si engine make from 3-5hp. You can get a few more if you do exhaust on it at the same time. For maybe a total of 8-10hp. Hope this answers your question.
The right cold air intakes not only provide fresh air but also help to maintain the recommended air/fuel ratio It is very important to use the right Cold Air Intake in the car Cold Air intake brings cooler air into your engine and combustion chamber. It boosts engine power and efficiency. For more details: Visit Driven By Style

Air is a critical ingredient in the working of an engine. The fuel cannot ignite on its own it must have oxygen to achieve combustion. If the engine is deprived of oxygen the engine will stall. An engine's revolutions are greatly affected by the amount of air entering the engine, this is why people spend countless amounts of money on cold air intakes, turbo and superchargers. A turbo or supercharger force air into the engine making it rev higher and in turn make the car go faster. Cold air intakes work on the theory that cold air is denser and provides a bigger combustion and expands more giving the engine more power. These are achieved by extracting air out of the main airflow running over the front of the vehicle, in the bumper or hood.
The 92-95 Honda Civic Cold Air design is simple, so you can check for the cheapest applications you can find on eBay or Amazon. The performance difference between the cheap generic intakes and the name brand intakes for that car will be negligible.
depends what u mean...there r actual modifications for cars called "cold air intakes" in theory, the colder the air, the better the engine will perform bcoz the air is more dense and so more oxygen molecules in it. this is where nitrous comes in.....the actual nitrogen doesnt burn, but it is an extremely cold gas and simply "sprays" in more oxygen
