Cold Air Intake Install Question
I just bought a CAI for my 1996 Prelude S, and i was wondering what if it is a hard install to do or its it easy just taking out old one and shoving in new one.

It should be pretty easy, it came with instructions, right? you disconnect a few hoses, remove all of the old plastic parts, including resonator, and shove the new tubing down there, running it up into your throttle body. 96...that might have sensors you need to deal with....i dunno. havent dealt with preludes yet.

you have to remove your intake and resanator(in bumper) then its pretty much strait forward.

I know I had trouble getting to all the screws holding the resonator in place, but once you get that, it's pretty straight forward. do you have a new filter already or are you using his old one? you may want to clean that before you install.
