I think the general opinion around here is to just buy a 97 Honda Accord CAI and cut a spot out for the sensor. You can find em all day long for about $40 shipped. Try doing a search for Accord CAI and read about it.

no its not worth it, first of all it is noisy as hell inside and out, second of all u see better gains with a CAI, find one that is for a 94-97 accord 4cyl, if u do get one, it will need to be slightly modded to fit with maf. It didnt take too long for mine,,

$21 to ship that??????? Screw that, listen to the others' opinions and get a CAI made for 94-97 4cyl Accord, you will be pleased with the results!

I have an '04 which also has the MAF setup. I purchased a two piece 94-97 Accord cai and with a little modification it works great. The sri in your link is not much of an upgrade because you leave the same restrictive duct work and only eliminate the filter box. Go with the Accord cai, I noticed reasonable gains and the car pulls great now... not to noisy either. :rolleyes:

If so can someone tel lme how t omod this pipe please? Thanks guys
you will have to cut it for the MAF sensor, and depending if it is a 3" or 2.75" You might have to get a reducer. If its 2.75 inch you just need two blue couplers to connect the MAF.
You will also have to widen the fender hole to the right of the battery to have the intkae piping fit.

I used a big **s wrench and just bend it a bitt to get my 3 inch pipe in, then put some kind of protective material around that spot because chances are the vibration will deteriorate the paint it comes in contact not to mention the spots u bent as well..
