new cold air intake

[alphamale]

so i just purchased a new cold air intake from evofusion usa. does anyone know do i keep the mass air flow sensor or can i get rid of it?

[hyunelan2]

You're going to need to keep the MAF, otherwise the engine won't know how much air is entering the engine.

Wow! :hand:

Does EF even make one for the maf based cars? or did you get the 01-03 one?

That pic is the exact copy of what I had on my 02.

You just place the MAF between a pair of couplers after the first section and call it a day. The 04-06 probably just comes with an extra coupler and clamp.

I can't believe you spent that much on a CAI.....I feel so sorry you didn't use the search feature sooner....

[Whipper]

Not everyone wants to hack an accord intake on their car. It's easier to just buy an intake that is made for the car. Welcome to the site!!! There is a lot to learn here the search button is your friend.

I am slyderdai on this. I went with a knock off brand from ebay and had nothing but troubles with the welds. Got a Secret Weapon R brand that was "made" for my car that didn't fit right without my having to move the fuse box, which I wasn't about to do. Had to redo the thing myself. I would be willing to pay the money for a part that is exactly right.

cosmo Racing was a perfect fit for $99 shipped. I did pay a "little" more than the $30-40 kits but the overall quality has been top notch and the filter has held up well to the last 5 years of abuse.

i really thought this site was gonna be cool. for those who were cool for the dumb question asked, thank you. SORRY we all cant be super mechanics like you guys.

Hang in there. You'll catch some flak for asking a question that might have already been answered, but usually someone will also answer your question or post a link to a previous thread that will answer your question.

Welcome to the forum.

Haha funny story- I tried to turn on my car for the first time after I finished my turbo, and threw a low MAF voltage CEL and the car wouldn't start for more than a second!


The cap was on the turbo intake. DURRR!!!1 LOL

But yes you need it.

[Ugzz]

i dont have a cai, i was going to get one then like 5+ people cut theirs and i wondered why, then i just never got mine heh..

but looking back on it, its a mod i still want, and i would gladly pay some extra $$ for a drop in instead of something i had to modify.

[Paul J. McCain]

Wait did you actually receive your order from evofusion?

[Midnightsky]

+2 to the above, I just paid $160 for a CAI but not a cheep evofusion intake, I got a quality AEM CAI with dryflow filter, all brand new still in the box. I'd love to take an AEM CAI and an EvoFusion CAI and put them against each other on a dyno.

[kylemorg]

^ perhaps someone else in your area has an Evofusion one? If there's a dyno nearby, you could actually test each one on your car!

And possibly ARK would sponsor part of the cost of the dyno test if you let them have a copy of the dyno graphs of stock, ARK and Evofusion.

[BobMs_wht2k2]

It'll be awesome!! you'll be able to recordthat .00001 HP difference.

[mtlelantra]

^^ beat me to it.

[BobMs_wht2k2]

Sorry. I can delete it and leave it open for you if you want?

[Paul J. McCain]

Wait so did you actually receive it from evofusion?

I don't want to think about anyone who's lost $1k from this:

It hasn't changed for 4 years.

I did finally recieve it after they sent me the wrong one. its in and I can notice the difference. i get better response off the start and mid range driving speed.
