hey blacklotus.

I believe both are 2 different types of intakes, k&n should have each that would fit your euro.

Hmmm....according to K&N, the 69-1209TS is a CAI (Cold Air Intake)...but somehow looks like a short ram intake (SRI) instead (coz it looks really short). The other (69-1206TP) is a CCA (Complete Cold Air intake). According to K&N, the CCA can perform the functions of SRI and CAI (Cold Air Intake).

Power Gains (As per K&N site):
69-1209TS = 7.13HP @ 5111RPM
69-1206TP = 3.8HP @ 5000RPM

If you wish to find out more info regarding the diffferences between SRI and CAI, pls click on the link below:

With regards to warranty, I dont believe it will void it (from what i've heard)...HOWEVER the best way to go about it is to ask your Honda dealership directly, they would definitely know for sure. Once you find out, let us know as well.

Hope that helps.

The 2nd.one is the one you should get.It's a CAI.The 1st.one is a SRI,not as good as it sucks hot air from under the bonnet(you'll also get defected if you have one of these installed)

Thos dyno charts aren't right as the power drops off way before vtec even kicks in and that's when a CAI is the coolest.

I can't believe you guys... You are looking at the wrong intake. The one for the Euro is 69-0025TP. The 2 intakes listed above are for the USDM Accord.

Guys,
I went to this car modifier mechanic today, he said that in the dyno result, the K&N Typhoon CAI is loosing power for the euro. He recommends Injen.

What you guys reckon huh? I bought mine K&N, I didnt test in the dyno, i reckon who cares, i mean it sounds mad...lol...then after the guy sed that, I felt quite dissappointed.

[akina]

i think these 2 are REALLY similar... shouldnt be any significant difference between the 2. just probably ingen is dyno proven... who knows

i got ingen... i feel like i loss power too... but the loss and gains from just an intake shouldnt be really noticeable anyway, apart from the sound!

From all the dyno's i've seen, the injen actually losses more power low end than the K&N, but it had slightly higher top end... whereas the K&N didnt drop much off the bottom, but didnt make as much top end...

i have the K&N, all round performance (total gain and loss) seemed to be ever so slightly better than the injen...

[EUR003act]

i would but it but i already have one!

someone else hurry up and buy it, he says he'll post at buyers cost! thats awesome price, they retail for like USD$380...

Yeah been looking around and Autobahn (Adelaide) can supply me with this airfilter. I showed the guy the model number (69-0025TP) as Aarong pointed out. To my supprised the guy told me that they have to order this from US but they have (69-1206TP) in stock here at Sydney and can get it for me. The guy said that he is not 100% that (69-0025TP) that will fit in my Honda Accord Euro 07, as this part is for Acura TSX (US euro ver.) But he seen and installed (69-1206TP) in 06-07 Euros He added that AutoBahn doesn't stock parts that are not sold in Australia. Im 100% that there is no mixed up with the the above model number while Im writting this.

So Is someone using CAI K&N in their Euro? If so which one did you use between above model number? So for now I'll just wait for replies.

Thanks

EuroAccord13 is using the 69-0025TP in his 2004 Euro and it fits perfect.

Would that also fit on 2007 Model? :(

For the Aus-spec Euro, 2003-2007 have the same engine bay layout and will fit.

Just some news if you want to get a K&N alternative pod replacement filter. And for $30 you cannot go wrong at all.
