Short answer: anything will fit with enough duct tape smile.gif

It won't fit exactly right, no. But people have used the nice-looking parts from civic intakes and rigged up custom jobs. Apparently it can be done with a bit of cutting, fitting & ingenuity.

To be honest with you, I personally do not know, but I do know this...

Any intake will fit any car... wink
All you need are rubber bends, and to cut the intake down to what you want... and like veniston said, if you dont have the rubber bends... duct tape will work, but its heavy... tongue.gif

You know to be completely honest. I think it's really possible to get an eclipse intake on a tib with no problem. Same design, same setup, at one time same engine. The civic one probably wont becuase the civic IM is on the other side. That means that any holes or anything for vacuums will be upside down if you were to try it. I wanna get an eclipse one and try it but I don't wanna blow the money.
