[limboy91]

Sorry noob here, does anyone know which Takeda intake model fits into my new Honda Accord Euro build in 2012 but model year 2013?
Cheers


Another question, does prefacelift model front under spoiler fits the new facelift model? or does it need some modifications?

[Vaku]

spoiler wont fit no..

NFI about the intake.

[limboy91]

any idea what modification can be done to front of facelife model besides replacing the whole front bumper?

As long as the intake is for CU2 it should fit. This is one that I found.

The one in your link is a short ram intake (SRI) and the one in my link is a cold air intake (CAI).

For differences between the two, look here: http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...rt-ram-intakes

im actually after SRI. mind to recommend me a few good brands to consider?

I recommend you read to see what others have used on their CU2. My experience is with the CL9 and what I eventually did was SRI but enclosed it with an enclosure which fed in cold air. With just the SRI alone, I couldn't even feel a difference, not even mentally. The only change was the louder sound.

+1 for Euros... go for the CAI....
More power and really hard to hydrolock (due to the Euro's Design)

CAI is too noisy. dislike noises.

SRI is just as noisy as CAI.

CAI produces more peak power on the dyno. Which you'll need what? Twice a year? It's like putting RBC's on the car... Its all that "Vtec yo" noise.

Bit of a wank really.

For those of us who actually use the car. the difference isnt all that much. SRI gives engine better response and more low end torque / power which you use everyday. But you have to deal with heatsoak...

Having said that at a lot of states you can't have SRI... Exposed filter in engine bay = Illegal. Hence Aarong built a box for it.

CAI is too noisy. dislike noises.

Otherwise, you could look at a "in between" design like the comptech icebox. If you use the foam filter that comes with the package. It's just as quiet as stock.

Change the filter to a more noisy K&N then it'll match a long tube CAI peak output while delivering more mid range poke
