Accord engines are totally different.

Anything meant for the 91 - 95 Legend WILL work.

I have a custom intake myself. Resonator box removed and custom pipe with filter.

nope... lolz.. if u have tcs then all it is that u need to cut the pipe a little shorter cause the TCS adapts between the TB and the intake... i am planning on making it a cold air cause i have the extra piping.. just been lazy and scared to take off the bumper

What about the Legend intakes on eBay? I've seen some for as low as $10 plus $20-30 shipping, but that's still rather cheap... How do you tell the crap apart from the good stuff?

I saw some Weapon R intakes for our TLs, but those are $180+.

Legend intakes will work. Some are crap though, hard to tell without seeing it in person. Just make sure you know if you have traction control and make sure the Legend intake is either TCS or non TCS

Somebody mentioned legend intakes on ebay. I took a look and they all cost around $30-40 shipped and the pictures look a lot like the custom one Kamlung made. Can someone confirm that these are good for the first gen 3.2TL and are better than the stock airbox?
