is it possible to jus bolt an air filter to the air box and take the stock filter out ?

[civictrev]

no real point in doing that..the whole point in an induction kit is to free up the air movement..so by doing it your way you may aswell just replace the standard air filter with an aftermarket one such as a k&n

Na, if you drill on the unfiltered side its perfectly safe for the engine.

Don't bother,

Just replace the resonator box with piping.

Sounds better and makes no difference to performance.

Indeed, just rip out the resonatorbox and you get a nice sporty sound, it's the big box to the left of the engine. Also, when in low rev, you don't make too much sound, so you can drive quietly without waking the neighbours when driving at night, at full throttle, you have a cool sound

It does affect performance, you loose the low down torque that the resnator box creates
