Try the accord FAQ at the top of this forum. It should be in there

Is it possible you can take a picture of your engine bay?? be alot easier to tell you what to do

But basically you have to removed the whole stock intake from the Throttle body up,

I know that some of the ebay intake they give u an extra piece that u cant use cuz it dosnt fit anywhere

seeing your other post you have a 5th gen accord (94-97) there is a write up on this intake installation -__- http://www.geocities.com/nbwp1....html (yes i found this in the accord faqs)


yes i know its short ram, but its the same idea for Cold air intakes.. exact same thing except CAI is longer obviously then "Short ram"

You bought an Ebay intake and had trouble installing it, but now you have a nitrous kit and you want to install it. Why? I think that you need to rethink the nitrous and if you are really set on it, pay someone else to do it. No offense, but it is a tad bit harder than installing an intake, and seeing how that went...umm.

For future reference, you do NOT need to make 3 separate threads regarding the same thing. Ask all your questions in the same thread.

Hmm... pics would be good. Ghetto rigging and nitrous usually don't go together very well.
