does anyone know anything about installing a CAI on a 4th gen accord?? i heard its a real biatch, but don't know for sure.

 

Simple. Take out stock airbox/filter, bolt in CAI.

Here's a 3" diameter '97-'01 Prelude AEM CAI on a 92 Accord:

Q1; where did your relocate the battery?
Q2; how hard was it to do the h22a engine swap into that 4th gen?

 

The battery is in the trunk. You don't have to move it to fit this intake, but I moved it for weight distribution purposes. The swap is strait-forward as far as engine swaps go. My friends and I could have probably done it except for lack of a lift and hoist and time, so I paid a shop big bucks to do it.

 

how many big bucks did you pay to have it done, oh yeah and where did you get the engine JDM or USDM?

 

one more q for you 4doorh22. did you have to do any funky mods to get the CAI routed?

 

No funky mods. Its very straight forward.

 

the cai isnt too fun you have to get up under the car and take the splash shield off and trim out the fender well under neath the battery too so it takes a little more skill than putting one on a civic or teg

 

thats funny since I had to do the same exact thing to get the Cold Air Intake on my civic. well minus the trim on the batery

Depends on the intake. Installing an Aerospeed intake on a 5th or 6th gen Civic requires the removing and cutting of the entire bumper.

 

Aerospeed those are the wanna be fake intercooler type ones right?

 

you sir are right

 

How much did it cost to swap in the H22A into your '92 Accord?? I am about to go through this and was just interested in the prices I am gonna be paying!

 

If you're not doing the work yourself, budget $10,000.

 

Hey 4doorH22, where did you get your radiator from, and how much was it?

 

Blue valve cover. Yummm. Your engine bay looks really clean. Nice pic.

 

is that Blue custom or did that come on something stock?
