Hi, i just bought a Cold Air Intake for my Honda Accord EX 1990 sedan and have no idea about how i should install it ...please help, would really appreciate it if someone who knows what they are doing could help me out. thankz

 

No Instrucion came with it? well then..here
unclamp the air filter box, and unbolt them off the car.
and loosend the clamp that is connected to the throttle body. and then pop in the intake

 

There will typically be a resonator below the airbox that needs to come out. You may be able to get it out by pulling back the wheel well splash gaurd, but will probably end up having to take the front bumper off. Once that is out, the rest is pretty obvious.

 

The resonator box does not need to come out if it's only a Short-Ram Intake
But if you happend to have a Cold Air Intake. you'll need to take the box out.

I just installed a CAI in my Civic two days ago. Everything is still fresh in my mind. Didn't read any instructions and it's simple. Jack your car, take off the front right tire, move the splashguard, rip out the resonator and factory airbox setup (don't actually rip it out, unbolt and stuff), I got the resonator out without removing the bumper, then rebolt the new air intake on. Star up the car and hit the gas and listen, or get a friend to hit the gas and listen to everything. Take the car for a test drive and see if anything rattles or there are any weird noises. If so tighten stuff up. That's it.

 

well, I am sorry that i read your post wrong..well, not carefully..
so, here is a site that tells for 6th gen accord, this would apply to most hondas'.

this thing is 3 month old now...!!!!
Fitsay was open (last time i checked was last sunday)
but i guess it's down for somereason.
it's a basic bolt in mod, i'll try to explain "how to"

1. Remove the Stock Intake System.
a. Un Clamp the rubber stock piping from the Throttle body, and unbolt the filter box. Remove.
b. Remove the Front Bumper, unbolt 2~4 screws that is holding the Resinator box(this box cancels out sounds so your car is quiet), remove the box.
c. keep the bumper off till you finish the final installation
2. Open your CAI box if it's still in it. read direction if any came with.
a. see if they fit by just matching the parts out. and put them in order.
b. clamp on the bypass and the pipings together snugly, so that you can adjust the right/perfect fitment you want.
3. Reset your ECU.
a. Unplug the negative side of the battery for 5 mins, this will reset your ECU computer, it will also erase your radio station memory on your radio.
b. you reset your ECU so your engine adjusts to the new environment, I do this ever season, 4 times a year, spring, summer, fall, winter..and every other engine mods you do. it's not so crucial, but it is good for the engine.
c. after you reset it, re-connect the neg battery wire(Black one, and it's also a Gounding, you'll find this goes to no where but to your engine mount and chasis. your whole car is a grounding) and start your engine. let IT IDLE FOR 10 mins. don't give it any gas, just idle. and turn the engine off, and give it 3 hard runs red-lining.
4. Don't forget you put everything back togerher, this is crucial
a. check all the clamps and screws, make sure they are tight.
b. put the bumper back on.

I hope that helps a bit.
