The other day my mate baught himself a 2002 excel with the DOHC the air sensors are behind the throttle body, we wanted to try out a K&N air pod filter on it and get rid of the cold air intake. we sprayed some pure alcohol into the throttle body and piping to clean it out. we left the cold air still intact while we disconnected the tubing to the throttle body and directly attached the air pod.
we then realised that it wouldnt get much air flow there and would have to pipe the pod and mount it towards the front, instead we left the pod there and positioned the original plastic pipe into the small inlet at the front of the pod..then took out the filter from the cold air intake, so its got air from under the hood and now sucking air through from the front.
we took her for a test run and i almost shat my self from puttin the foot down. the thing had so much more power it was crazy. the thing sounded like it was supercharged, the engine sounded like a beast and you could still hear the air sucking in over the engine noise. putting the foor down really put you back in your seat, which before we did this it had never done.
hyundai had really choked the air flow when they made em.

Hello. My name is John and I am new to this forum. I just got a used 91 Integra and I am looking to fix it up and make it get better gas mileage as well as more power. So here I am in looking what others have done to make it happen. I welcome all info and look forward to hearing what is out there for this nice ride. Thanks.
