Default 92 accord cai install need help

ok, so i got my cai, now i'm looking at it, and where the **** does the tubing go, its a one piece design, the tube isnt long enough for it to end up behind the bumper, and there isnt room enough for a filter to fit between the battery and the inside of the engine compartment, if anyone has pics of a 4th gen with a cai, i would like to see how it goes
thanks

you gotta make the hole bigger by the battery so the piping fits down there.

Ok, the 92s are a hell to install on. It seems as though everything "almost" fits. The CAI in perticular. The hole has to be cut MUCH bigger. Mine ended up aprox 3x bigger, just to get the piping to fit. Also, mine was a two piece, piping was bent funny, and I had to make it a 3 piece to fit (without relocating the battery). It works well now. Cut the hole big!
