ok so I've done a few before but I cant seem to get it done on my 92 lude. Do I have to take the bumper off or can I just remove the splash guard. If so where are all the bolts to get the, can't think of the name of it right now, the box that makes the stock intake quieter. Any way where are all the bolts to get that off? Thanks. Craig

start by removing your stock intake airbox etc.
then remove the passenger side wheelwell splash guard, there are a handful of 10mm bolts under the front corner of the guard and in the wheelwell.
once you do that u should be able to remove the resonator with some muscle and ingenuity.

got the resonator out, but either I don't know what I'm doing or this intake doesn't fit. The intake pipe doesn't fit through the whole from the resonator? Thats how I've done it on My del sol and a couple of friends civics?

there should be a hole under where the stock airbox was...next to the battery. u will have to remove the wire mesh that is located there, it is trimmed in rubber and should come out fairly easy. at that point u should be able to get the intake pipe thru the hole. im not sure what intake you are using, but i had a ebay CAI and mine fit no problem. now i have a AEM short pipe.

yeah, mine didn't fit through the hole either, so i customized a bigger hole. looks like it was always that size after i got done with it. (i'm a perfectionist) now mine fits perfectly with about a mm on each side.
btw, i have a AEM cai

Craig

how did you enlarge the hole? Ima going to need to do more than a mm on each side though, there aint no way that pipe is going to fit like it is. Oh and its a cheap ebay intake

u can use a sawzall with a fine tooth metal cutting blade. i cut the engine out of a 92 prelude si with it.
those ebay intakes are funny. my old one rusted up. there are like 50 different makers for those things. where do all these apc type companies keep coming from.

so either a:

hole saw. sized by your intake.

or

supersawzall

hammer work good enough for me just to bend the little bit that needed bending.

Craig

hack saw and pliers did the trick Got it on, I miss the sound of VTEC kicking in from the last car, but all in all its sounds pretty good.

I used a dremel with a cutting wheel. Then I lined it with Wiring hose.
