man...thats alot of stuff...ok...i was thinking now...why dont i just get the cold ait intake? I mean for lower speeds...it'll work! I wont be driving at high speeds...thx alot for the info tho!

 

Cold air is going to be more work. You're talking about your first project.
Like my Dad used to say... K.I.S.S (Keep it simple, stupid). I'm not calling you stupid. Please don't take it that way. What you CAN do, is buy a cold air system, and if you don't like it, cut the pipe to the length of a short ram. That's what I did. If you don't do something simple first, you're gonna be posting in the "How bad did your first D.I.Y go" thread. lol

 

this might help a little bit

lol...thanks guys...i like the K.I.S.S Indeed this is my very first "major" project on my car. I've never taken out my stock intake system so I dont know what awiats. I know its like I keep jumping from one side to the other. Im getting a really good deal on the short ram intake system from ebay (33$ shipped to Canada). I dunno how its gonna work out but thanls alot. the help and adivce is greatly appreciated.

btw, thanks for the pick...it gave me a rough idea. I just hope i can handle the installation. thanks again

 

i have a 95 accord and the first thing i ever did was my cold air intake it wasnt hard 35 minutes maybe...and im 16...but neways i took it out 2 days later and im ordering a short ram now cuz that one didnt seem to fit right it always rubed a lil it was a paint gl

 

You could save some money by cutting the one you have.

 

Short ram systems have better flow characteristics, but cold air intakes are MUCH better because of the outside air source. Colder air is more dense, creating a better burn. With a short ram you'll be lucky to even gain 1 hp. Cold air you'll probably gain 2-3 hp. Not much at all, but for a first project, i'd go with the short ram system. then if you want, you could buy the extra pipe and make it a cold air.

 

just make sure to get a bypass value if you are going for C.A.I

 

Get a aem v-2 comes with everything ya need and good instructions, I like mine. Or buy the cheapest one u can find for your car (ebay) and slap a k&n cone filter on it. I'v heard it a good cheep alternitive.

 

I got one from ebay (short ram) pretty cheap....im gonna get the k&n filter for it . I just hope its easy...lol..;-)
