Just got done installing the Injen kit. It is louder than expected. I will to drive a little more before I can decide if it's too noisy. One problem though. My sound system is not working now. It just says CODE. How can I reset this? It has to be because I disconnected the battery.

 

doesnt that ruin ur engine warranty

 

Regarding the CODE.

The dealer should have given you a card that has the radio's code number AND navigation's code number on it. If you can't find it in the leather pouch with all the materials that came with the car (i.e. manual, quick reference, etc.), give your dealer a call...you will have to probably go in to the dealer to get the number (just for safety precautions).

 

The radio was deactivated because you disconnected the battery--you're correct in that, and you have to enter your 5-digit radio code to reactivate, as daikon indicates above. It's not a big deal at all, enjoy your Injen.

And for blufox, federal law states that adding aftermarket parts cannot void the warranty unless it is shown to be the cause of a problem that would otherwise be managed under warranty.

 

Check on your fusebox. My friend has an 02 CL Type S and he had to report to his dealer to get the code once. They lifted up the hood, and it was written on the fuse panel.

 

Thanks for the quick response guys. It was the radio code.

Since that is no longer a problem, I was able to do another test drive without being distracted thinking I had fu(ked something up. The Injen CAI is loud when the vtec kicks in. Very loud actually. But, it's a good sound, real strong sounding. Normal driving (lower RPM's) is only slightly louder. Hardly noticeable. What you do notice is the extra power. It might be only 8-12 hp but you can tell it's there. Overall very pleased. Removing the bumper was tougher than expected. But that was only because I had never done it before. If I had to do it over, it would be a lot faster and less frustrating.

Next up....installing under body spoiler kit

 

dcarlin,

Any tips to make removing the bumper easier, now that you have done it????

 

Has anyone been able to install the intake without removing the bumper? On my 01 CL the instructions said to remove it but it was not necessary, all I had to do was remove the lining above the wheel.

 

Why did u disconnect the battery?

I second that question as my Injen kit order is B/O waiting on the heat shield...why disconnect the batt? As for the rest...I'm now wondering if I want to bother seeing another report of loud intake roar.
