My 96 LX has a top mount tb and I'm assuming your's is the same way? If it is, no cause the EX has a side mount tb and the piping won't line up.

it wont work. AEM makes different intakes for lx and ex. also his is m/t which would make it worse.

Just cuz its made for different cars doesnt necissarily mean it wont work. THis time u were right, but understand this. Like for instance u wouldnt think an AEM Integra Type CAI would fit on an H22 Civic now would u? different intake part numbers between the civic and the integra means they wont fit right? wrong. I am running the ITR CAI on my H22'd Civic. It fits perfect with no cutting whatsoever. Lots of intakes are very similar between car to car. Just learn what will work and what wont work. Just my .02 cents. |
