I just received a short ram intake used through ebay. It has NO instructions, I have no idea what the hell I am doing. I have a '94 Accord, can anyone guide me through the process, with pictures possibly? I really don't want to f$ck up my car. I have the tube, one hose, two clamps and rubber bumper/sleeve type thing. Please help!

 

If you need directions to hook up the intake, you haev major problems. But basically you remove all the plastic junk that comes before the throttle body, and replace it with the stuff you got.

 

But it seems like I don't have enough hoses, and that I am pulling out some sensors?

 

What you do is remove all the black stuff that is infront of the throttle body and the hose that is connected to the stock airbox. You also remove the large black box under the car that is connected to the stock air box. Finally, you clamp the new intake using the rubber connecter and clamps to the throttle body. That hose you removed then connects to the intake. Any sensors that are connected to the stock airbox is not needed. I have one that isnt connected to anything anymore. Hope this helps.

 

Do i need to remove the box underneath the car for a short ram intake? I do not have a cold air.

 

you dont have to, but it does nothing sitting there.

 

Hehe i did the same thing last nite for the 1st time and trust me i know almost nothing about engines took me 20 min easiest thing i had to do well other than hooking up stereo. And it's loud as a **** love it

 

well i want to make reinstalling the factory box as easy as possible, so can I just put in the new intake and leave the big black thing underneath the car there?

 

What part of san jose u from, maybe i could help u out im from san jose too.

I work on Hamilton Ave right near Bascom. But I could come to you where ever you are.

 

So once and for all, can I do the install on my 94 Accord without removing anything besides the factory airbox and connecting pipe? Or is there more to it?

 

c'mon this is as simple as it gets.

 

Anyone besides smokinbutthole?

 

at the throttle body, untighten the o-clamp hooking the tube into the tb.

get some pliers and " pinch " the oil cooling tube out.

on the air intake box, theres like 4 screws on each side holding it down, get a long ratchet extension and unscrew the ones down in the front and get the 2 screws on the front fender " hump "

pull the intake out.

then you can probably figure out the rest.

 

Give the man a break, I respect his honesty for asking.

 

Hope this helps

Link this http://www.injen.com/webpages/intake.../is/is1600.jpg and just try to get yours to fit like that. But refer to hybrid theory's link for removal. Once you get it out it is really simple. Good luck

 

I'm located right by Eastridge mall let me know if you wanna hook up and we can do this.

 

why did you do it ***** style? you should have done it big.(cold air intake)

take that **** out anyway.... if you ever put the stock intake back in it will be better with out the silencer box thing.

 

What did you guys do with the black tube and box attached to the bottom of the main pipe?? It had a bunch of wires and stuff running into it and had two bolts of different sizes holding it down.

 

Resonator, remove it, its useless.

 

but then what about all the wires running in and out of the thing attached to it?

 

Clip the ends and zip-tie them together.
