Integra Cai with picts (almost a how to)

[1988starter]

After reading post after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM after post after PM. I decided to post some picts of my teg cai that may help explain how to do it.

First off let me explain I used a 92 AEM civic shortram for the bottom of my intake because it was 2.5 inch and that way I did not need to widen the hole. Also I used a one piece teg intake and the stock throttlebody adapter worked wonderfully going from 2.75 to 2.5 I have 2 one from a junk yard and one from my car. So here it is and if I misspelled something and you care keep it to your self because I don't.

Here is a pict without the battery you can clearly see where I made the one piece into 2 The middle of the cai I used for the top L shaped piece and the top became the ~ shaped middle



Here is a close up of the top L shaped piece


The middle ~ shaped Piece



Here is a pict of my PCV set up one blue hose (with a screw in it to seal it and a black hose coming off the valve cover


Here is my left over piece of teg piping next to the civic piping showing that is I had widned the hole to 2.75 it would have fit.


and finally here it is coming down with a curved pipe into the bumper (I did this to place it right behind the vent below the turnsignal and yes it does make a difference at high speeds)


And put it all together and reinstall the battery and you get this

Okay, sweet, i didnt see it at first and I thought to myself "damn, gotta order a batt. relocat. kit!", cuz I just got my teg CAI in the mail the other day, and I'm excited to install it!

Hey that rules!!!! But what's a bumber?

[bobafett]

a bumber is when you take the front of a 4g accord and put it on a 3g.. HAHAHA

Yea if you look at the third to last pict to will see how the trg cai piece fits it has the same angle as the civic one.

looks good.. nice strut bar...what kind of strut bar is that?

[1988starter]

92 civic

So then why exactly did u use the Civic piping instead? was there a reason for this?

Wel should just say read the top of my post but the reason I did it is because the hole into the fender can only take a 2.5 inch pipe and the teg pipe is 2.75 so instead of making the hole wider like most people I just attached my civic intake with 2.5 inch piping.

how about you just go onto ebay and buy a AEM CAI for a 94 accord, cut a bigger hole in the fender, and turn the battery around 90 degreez, and stick the bitch in!!!Thats what i have and its so easy!!! No cutting the pipe or diffrent things to fit to throttle body!! Mine help me run a 16.2 @ 84.78!!! : )

Because I allready did mine and my battery fits regular besides if you run a 16.2 I must be in the mid to low 15's

Just to let people know, I plan on doing a cut-by-but, stepy by step on the two-piece 'teg CAI I just got. I do already have the cut in, but I'll still be able to make it pretty clear. I'll try to have it up in a couple days...just depends on when my internet at home gets back online.

Cool, well be waiting :super:

[cdscowboy]

Well, sorry guys, but I forgot my digicam when I went to my friends to put it in, so I don't have any pics. And it was also a real pain in the ass to actually get in there, so I don't feel I'm the most qualified to give a How-to. Somehow, I didn't use one of the pieces of the piping...:lol It's...umm....special

BUT OMG....SOUNDS SOOO DAAAMMNNNNN GOOOOOD!!!!

[meangreenLXi]

What were some of the problems that you ran into, was it getting the tube down through the hole that leads into the bumper. From what I'm hearing that seems to be the toughest part of getting the Intake to fit. Either bore out that hole or fit a smaller piece of tubing down throught it for that particular section? Boring it out would be the better choice, because making the tubing smaller in that area restricts the air flow at that point.

Hey are you guys using a bypass valve?

Okay, I'm stupid, I watch I'm with Busey and it must be rubbing off on me.
