RE: eBay Intake - 5/14/2008 11:48:10 AM    falkore24 Posts: 5925 Joined: 8/16/2007 From: Wayne, NJ Status: offline Nope, the bumper isn't hard to take off though.  Just a few screws and clips.  the easiest way to deal with the clips that I've found is to pry the inner piece up a little with 2 small flat screwdrivers and then use a pair of needle nosed pliers to pull it the rest of the way out.  Note that the pliers aren't used for squeezing, but rather like a pickle fork to lift using the sides. On my brother's CL, I got it out with only removing the bumper half way and the lower shield, but it was a lot easier to just take the bumper off. _____________________________ 2006 Scion TC (ZPI-18G pending) 2000 V6-AT (RIP 3G) Temp Search thanks to Finch13 (in reply to coup de grace) Post #: 16

RE: eBay Intake - 5/14/2008 10:46:05 PM    coup de grace   Posts: 35 Joined: 5/6/2008 From: Indiana Status: offline Ok I have everything installed. I had to make a lot of adjustments, the Bomz filter didn't fit my Accord exactly. Since I needed to buy some push screws for my bumper, I went and converted the CAI to a SRI for a short while. But eventually, I got the splash guard, bumper, resonator off. Here are photos of the final installation: Now cosmetically, everything looks OK (to me). However it appears I've run into some issues. First of all, my check engine light came on. Second of all, when I'm flooring the engine, I'm hitting 5000+RPM but I'm catching almost no speed. I can definitely hear the new intake, but my acceleration is noticebly slower. Any idea what's wrong? _____________________________ 2002 Honda Accord V6 EX Sedan Bomz Cold Air Intake w/AEM Dryflow NGK Iridium IX Spark Plugs EuroDezigns 6000K High/Low Beams Black Altezza Tailights (in reply to 00AccordLX5spd) Post #: 18

Other fact could be an excess of air in the cylinder???? don't think so but sounds like a fuel/air mixture problem... but I can't tell by the info you gave... Put more details and ill do my best to help you bro... _____________________________ 2000 Accord LX i4 Turbo AT 18" Konig Unknown Rims MSD 6AL Gold Line Suspension Apexi Neo Few other Mods...
