Is is just me or are the hose openings.... ON THE WRONG FUCKING SIDE?!?!

How the hell do I get the hose to reach all the way down to the filter side?

 

Hmm do you have a 2.x or the 3.0? Arent the intakes on diff sides for them..? maybe im wrong =/

 

3.0 and that's what I'm trying to figure out.
If I do get supper long hose so it can reach, would that be a bad thing in any way? (longer distance air travel, etc.)

 

no its ok, it connects to the pcv valve which sends built up pressure(rich gas) back into the intake to be reburnt.

 

you should complain. did they send you the wrong one?

 

So it would be ok if I just buy longer hoses at an auto parts store right? Both hoses?

Nope. On the box it says "fits..."
98 - 02 V6 Honda Accord
97 - 99 3.0 Acura CL

 

Put the filter on the other end.

 

Tried that. Battery is in the way. It cuts across too sharp.

 

Mmm...seems like they designed it wrong then.

 

That's what I'm thinking... Should have went with the cheap BOMBZ one..
So far, all the mods that I have done to the car have blown up in my face. And yet I go on.

 

you should definitely complain saying they weld in the wrong spots.

 

Yeah.. That's what I'm going to do. Hopefully they will take it back but still want another intake regardless. Anyone recommend and like me to a cheap intake?

Why are there 3? and Aren't there supposed to be 2 holes instead of just one?
3.0 SRI btw.

 

sample pic, and its a 3.0 sri.

 

ebay sent me the wrong intake so i complained and they let me keep the one i had . PLUS sent me a new one

 

So are you sure it will fit?

 

i just looped the hoses, worked for my sri and the cai

 

Looped the hoses?

THANK YOU! This is the one I should have bought in the first place. I'm going to buy it right now and sell the one I have now on 6thgenaccord or something if the seller won't take it back.

EDIT: Just bought it! This better work..

 

I have the same SRI tube, and mine barely touches the battery, U can fit it

 

you havea drill no? or autozne for longer hoses, no performance difference. assuming you can't get it worked out with the seller.

 

I have holes on each side, but I looped the vac lines to each side cuz they wouldn't directly reach, works fine.

 

also if you have fitting issues you can always chop chop your intake pipe to make room. if you make it straight you wont have the annoying humming noise =)

 

Ok, the seller refunded my money and I am sending it back tomorrow morning. Can't wait for the new one!

 

 

Well, I just got that BOMBZ Intake that C4PT41N_73TH47 suggested.


Verrrry short. As in, I had to twist the intake so the filter wouldn't hit the battery short. I was thinking of running the tube (the kinked one) to the other hole but run a new hose directly to the engine on the left. I would also have to run a new tube on the other side.


There is a kink problem too. I guess I'll switch the tubes around but the other won't reach which means I need a new, longer hose for there too.


My question is, how can I extend the pipping a little so the intake won't be twisted? 3" pipe + 3" intake/pipe cupping? And can I see pics of yours C4PT41N_73TH47? I need ideas fast because I replaced my window reg and am ready for a tint tomorrow.

 

looks like he sent you a different tube than mine.

 

i think he sent you the second gen sri which looks like this...

Wow, talk about get what you pay for, pay for a cheap intake and don't even get the right one

 

Wow... The intake I have looks nowhere near as long as that...
Wow... 2nd wrong intake in a row..
Guess I gotta send this one back and loose another $11 shipping..

I am so pissed already I'm not even going to argue.. But with my luck, even if I bought an AEM intake, they would have sent me the wrong one.

 

Well, looks like I'm going to have to send this back too. Guess I'll try again.

Is this the right one?

 

Yah appears to be the right one to me..if someone else can confirm this i might just buy me one too this morning =)

 

BTW, one last pic...

That confirms that it's the wrong intake...2nd time in a row.

 

Damn man are you cursed or what? lol Hope i dont have the same problems..i been waiting all week on my clear corners and prayin they come today

 

Yep that one's good. Shit I just realized I still have my SRI somewhere, should have sold it to ya lol

 

What is it?

 

sorry about that man, third times the charm though eh?

 

Haha!
