Civic TID.. sportin' rice.

Alright, I'm looking at the civic intake pipes w/ filter on ebaymotors. Anyhow, I need a 2.5" to 3" coupler but I can't find one. Anyone know where I can get this coupler so I can connect my intake pipe?

Just so I'm straight, the turbo inlet is 2.5" right? No one said different, but I'm just checking before I drop money on an adapter.

I was just looking on HP freak's site at the HKS intake kit for the S5 7. It's only like $120. If I bought a cheapy intake and that coupler from HP freaks it would cost me about $60 anyways, should I just order the whole intake kit? Would I benefit from spending the extra money?

No, the turbo intake is 60mm (~2-3/8"). A 2.5" coupler will clamp down onto it.

I have 2.5" -3" red 4-ply silicone reducers, you do not want to buy the home depot rubber plumbing coupler it has a tendency to melt and get sucked into your turbo, this will destroy the turbo.

are you fitting a civic intake onto a 7? Because that's what I did.
