Question regarding the honda

[partyharty]

Hello everyone I have a very simple question.

On my engine there is a pipe coming off of the air filter housing. There is another smaller pipe coming off of it (just above the battery). What is this second pipe connected to? On mine it is not connected to anything.

Thanks,
Chris

if I remember right thats supposed to allow a little bit of air into the system. some correct me if i'm wrong.
Ditch the factory setup and go with a short ram or a CAI

They also work as silencers for intake noises

umk, so it is not supposed to be connected to anything.

Thanks for the help, I tend to take a second look at hoses, pipes, etc that is not connected at both ends.

I am checking into the homemade cold air intake now. I think I am going to set it up.

thats the best and only way to do it
but make sure to get a bypass valve so water dosent get into the intake mani

Where can I get the bypass valve? I am looking at a link that I pulled off of a search

They do not mention the bypass valve, where can I get one and where does it go?

Thanks,

I got a AEM one off of ebay, you just have to measure your pipe diameter
