year...trim...model?

Anything?

The fuse thing could be a number of things depending on the year.

I know some people use resistors in the IAT plug for "more power" - but I don't know where the IAT sensor is on a Honda. I'd have to look for it - and it's not that important to me.

The hose is your breather hose.

As far as the stock hose goes...just leave it there, or cut it off.

And as far as the sensor goes, pics are always nice...but I'm sure you can get an answer if you just told people something about your car

The best I can think of as well is the IAT. This is actually a very important part because it helps determine the air and fuel mixture for the vehicle. As Syndacate stated you can use a resistor but that's more trouble than just drilling a hole in the intake, installing a proper size rubber gromet and installing the IAT back into it to have it run properly. (Remember, this is all based on the fact that it is INFACT the IAT.)

Naw, don't get it twisted, I'm telling him what the fuse type thing could COULD be - I would never suggest somebody fake an IAT reading like that.

Ricers do it, and it's a "20hp performance chip" on ebay.
