Vtim 3rd Gear May 11, 2003 Share May 11, 2003 it depends on the length of the tube & the material of your preference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S2P2 Neutral Newbie May 11, 2003 Share May 11, 2003 VTIM is right and it also depends on how you intend to do your mod....the material purchased will also determine if you need other stuff......here's a list for my case Airbox-->pipe-->Foglight Cover Plastic Pipe - 3 feet $10. Aero Tape - $9 Cable Tie - $2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drag00n Neutral Newbie May 12, 2003 Share May 12, 2003 Really? CAI is good for low end? My gear one sucks big time man! Does it require cutting my original pipe? Its now taking air from the bottom of the car leh. I am really considering to do up my CAI but dunno how to go about doing it, anyway, does it void my warranty? If I need to cut my original air intake pipe, I think it will. Pls advice! thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modeldriver Neutral Newbie May 12, 2003 Share May 12, 2003 Ok loh.... will try to come one time... difficult leh with kids at home... usually night time must spend time with them. Else maybe one day I'll stake out your house Anyway, did you do the whole works - i.e. remove airbox etc ? Does it make much more noise now ? Fren moded his JDM Accord 2.4 by removing the resonator box (in bumper area) and changed filter from flat to cone in the filter box - result is more power, but also intake sound much more macho and loud.
